Ok.
I am looking into buying a 80 gig HDD for my rig for lans.

I was wondering if there is enough load time difffrence between these two models to matter??

1= http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148015

2= http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148040

i can get #1 here localy at a decent price.
to get a good price on #2 id have to order it.

so will it realy matter that much?

The second one has a larger cache, better performance. Correct me if I am wrong.

i thought that was just for write times.

i may be wrong though.
