Okay, after some googleing I found some benchmarks. Of course these are for 2004 and are on IDE drive, not SATA. for the start up in XP there was about a 3 MB/s increase in RAID 0, for loading applications there was a 0.5 MB/s increase in RAID 0, and for copying files there was a 10 MB/s increase. But would these be significantly better using a SATA II drive?

Also that still doesn't give me a clue to what I want to know. I'm not to worried about how much faster an application will load or faster boot times. I just want to cut the time it takes to open a large psd or similar file. Can't seem to find any benchmarks on this yet.
