Hey, so i just a simple question here. i currently have 3 x 500 GB's in Raid 0. (2 WD and one SG) i need more space, and wouldn't mind more speed

.

i dont know if i should:

buy 3 more 500GB WD/SG 16MB buffer to make it 6 x 500 GB in RAID 0
$60.00

or

buy 2-3 1TB WB/SG 32Buffer for 3x 500GB and 2-3 1TB in RAID 0
$100.00

im not too sure, but im thinking the 6x 500GB is going to be faster then if i put some 1TBS in, even though the RPM and Cach is the the same.
