That's the precise reason I recommended that. Raptors are faster'an'fuck. a 7200 RPM SATA will cause NO noticeable difference in performance, unless you're moving up from a 5400 RPM drive with less than 2mb worth of cache, connected on a ATA 33 cable. In that case, a SATA drive will be noticeable. However, if you've got a damn $2000 budget, I would still suggest a Raptor.
