The 2200 will blow the socks off a 2000. It has a decicated IDE ATA100 contollers. Where the 2000 only has a single (shared) ATA 33 IDE controller. My test showed the 2000 was maxed out at 1.8M/sec. Where the 2200 was around 4M/sec. These were write speeds, both in RAID 1. Both are good machines, ideal for home use. The 2000 with flashram will setup bare drives. Where the 2200 requires a image file. Both store the OS on BOTH drives if in RAID 1.
