Well regular 7200rpm 8mb cache SATA hard drives hardly give you a performance benefit over the IDE counterparts.  Basically all you get with a normal SATA drive is a minimal performance gain and smaller, cool looking cables.  The raptors are definitely the HD performance king excluding SCSI.  You will notice quite a difference between raptors and the normal SATA drives (the seek times are a lot faster).  Pop two of those suckers in RAID-0 and you got the current best setup besides a pricey SCSI setup.

Only downsides to the raptors are the obvious GB/dollar ratio and they run pretty damn hot.  Good thing is that they're fairly quiet for a 10000rpm drive, or at least mine are.
