Would it be truly worth it to grab one of these kits or would it be a waste of money? http://www.addonics.com/products/io/ide_scsi.asp AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ 2GB Dual Channel DDR 3200 Nvidia 7800GT SATA II 2x 200gig 7200rpm 16mb cache RAID-0 Gigabyte Nforce 4 SLI

Depends on what you are trying to achieve. All that device is doing is changing the interface of the drive. It does not make the drive any faster. This would only be beneficial if you have to add capacity to a SCSI system and want larger capacity rather than fast performance. Again, it will not increase performance. In fact, I would think there would be a performance hit (possibly minor) due to the conversion. It's just like the SATA drives. There are 150 and 300 versions of SATA, but SATA drives are no faster than their PATA counterparts. Nothing can change the physical limitations of the actual hard drives. Michael J

True, but the way memory drives are heading in space wise it's just a matter of time before hard drive become a thing of the past. AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ 2GB Dual Channel DDR 3200 Nvidia 7800GT SATA II 2x 200gig 7200rpm 16mb cache RAID-0 Gigabyte Nforce 4 SLI

Not likely. Seagate just released a 750GB drive. And the flash memory drives are not near as fast as hard drives anyway. Michael J

Well the thing i like about flash drives are it's durablity compared to hard drives, something that current hard drives don't have. Bump your pc while the hard drive is loading something that could damage the hard drive, bump a flash drive and nothing happens. I wouldn't count flash drives out from not evolving. I wouldn't be shocked if they came up with a built in flash drive that preforms as fast and a system memory does in terms of data storage.
