SCSI for my P4?

Well guyz i am thinking of going for a £100ish 18GB 10krpm SCSI drive to use for booting windows and using on a few games. would this improve windows performance at all compared to my 7krpm IBM's? If so is it anoth improvement to sacrifice a weeks wages too? Thanx guyz.

Since iv started work i have wanted to head in new directions with computing, try things i have never tryed and learn new things with them.

I most probably will go for a smallish scsi drive for windows a maybe 1 or 2 games to run on.

SCSI owns me.

my friends always say that IDE is just as good... until they see my load times are twices as fast as theirs!

I'd also recommend you place your swap file on that drive.
