I want to build a RAID 0+1 for my gaming PC. What are the best gaming HDDs?

I need a 4x250GB SATA-II to go with my new ASUS StrikerII nForce 780i mothercard.

I'm looking at these:

WD 250 GB
- SATAII-300 (Fluid) - 7200 RPM / 16MB, Native Command Queuing (NCQ) – Caviar RE (RAID Edition)

Are these good for gaming? Or should I take a second look and search for other HDDs? Remember RAID 0+1.

Suggestions appriciated! Thanks! :)

Those drives will work just great. Some folks may recommend Raptors for extra speed or Seagate but WD has never done me wrong.

WD all the way! FTW!
