    first off, why do you need so much space??? o_O

    i havent seen any 1tb
    i ithink the fastest way to get 1.5 TB is by raiding 2 750GB hdds

    well the mobo u have must support raid

    (in my mobo) the bios detects the hds and if i press ctrl+j it takes to the raid options there r lots of ways to raid them ex mirrored or in jbod that they add each other and windows recognizes them as 1hd
