any faster way to complie a program?

I also purchased the cheapest 1 gig traditional Sata 3 drive that I could find to compliment the RAID setup. RAID is great, its an easy way to speed up your drives but if one drive develops a fault then you loose the data in both, so a backup drive is always recommended.

32Gig x 2 in a RAID config, is easily enough for Windows 7, plus all my development software BTW, actually a 32gig alone would probably work fine for me.
