About time! I have two of the 74 gig raptor drives and have really loved using them. The speed and realiability have been excellent. Only problem is I use up a lot of space, so they are really relegated to core sys functions. Now I will at least be able to expand a bit. Western Digital has announced the 150 gig raptors. While it is not 300 gigs, it will still be a nice upgrade. Perhaps I can add a pair of these down the road to give me some more high-speed room. The only concern I have right now is price.

wow, i have got only 20 gb in disk, so think how is that if u got full 150 gb in your hd :s

I dont see much of a difference. If you want a hard drive, then why not just buy a normal one but with like 500GB space, if you need a lot of space!!!

Raptor hard drives are simply awesome, they are incredibly fast. Of course, for the price of it you can get a 500gb instead of 150, but that depends if you prefer speed over size.

In my opinion it's always better have have more space than speed. Because 150GB is almost nothing. But 500GB is big, so u can use it and still have enough space left over.

Raptor hard drives are great, but having an increase of platter speed doesn't always neccessarily help applications... but I'd still prefer to have a raptor in my computer than any other HDD.

It's good to here that the storage sizes are increased, but I don't think it would help a lot... I mean you don't need a Raptor hard drive only to hold all your applications. It's all right to have a normal hard drive for most (all basically) applications, since you won't even notice a big difference.

Oh well it's good to hear that there's a bigger hard drive, but I'm not sure if a lot of people will be using this...

The worst thing of Raptors are the heat. I burnt one already, so if anyone here uses one, I STRONGLY advice to get a good hard drive cooler like Antec's one.
