    Hi, I want to install a WD Raptor 150 into my pc, but I am wondering how I'd get the best use of it?

    Is it better to run the OS off it? or is the difference negligable?

    or, is it mainly for game data?

    Everyone raves about them but I'm unsure as to what the benefits are if I dont know what to use it for!

    Cheers, Michenko

    Raptors will decrease load times. You'll want your OS and programs installed on it and the rest of the stuff can go on other drives.
