WD Raptor = Western Digital SATA hard drive. Note that SATA is quite different from IDE and EIDE (drives are not interchangeable between interfaces, like SCSI and EIDE). And as far as I know, you still need an EIDE drive to boot from. But, if you have a Dual Xeon board, it should have a pair of SATA interfaces (one drive each, I think). SATA drives run at 10,000 RPM and are usually configured in a RAID setup.

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
