Hard Drive Advice

[Crazytrain]

I am completely new to building a computer and am stuck on what kind of hard drive to buy.

This will be completely for gaming, I have 2 GB memory, E6600 processor, and 768 MB 8800 video card.

My question is: Do I get a RAID card or some other kind? I'm really stumped on which to get to match the rest of my hardware

Any and all input will be greatly appreciated

Raid would be a waste of time and money.

A fast Single drive like one of the WD Raptors or Seagate drives with 16mb of cache would be fine.

RAID 0 implementation is also unreliable for long term.
