There has been a lot of improvement in the average new 1 TB drive since the Raptor came out. What do you want it for? A SSD can whoop on a Raptor in most benchmarks while using a quarter of the power.
I want it for a boot drive in a 2.5GHz PowerMac G5. It's a G5, so an SSD would be complete overkill, not to mention if I was going to spend several hundred on drives I'd buy some 1TB drives and a Jive cage for the G5.
Yes, it is a 10K drive, and as I stated in the post, it would replace the current 160GB boot drive as all my files/media are located on the 1TB drive.
