A while back and I believe it was Mark’s response to a posting regarding the configuration for an ideal computer devoted strictly for video editing and rendering suggested the drive(s) rotate at a speed of 10,000 rpm.

I have looked but cannot find this aforementioned posting so I have to ask the question of why 10K rpm, instead of a slower drive speed; I assume it is because of the rendering quality is greater with the 10K, as opposed to a slower speed, but I’d like to know for sure if this is correct or there’s another reason.

Any replies regarding this nagging question is appreciated – Thanks for your time.
