Dear All, I might have miss out some of the old post. I am currently
using a 7.2K RPM sata harddrive. May I know if 15K RPM SAS harddrive
will help to speed up the DFT calculation (other than a good CPU and
good amount of ram), much more than a 7.2K RPM harddrive?

It is worth to get a 15K RPM SAS harddrive for DFT calculation since
it cost much more than a 7.2K RPM harddrive with a lower storage
space?

Cheers,
