Just be careful of the heat being generated by that 10k drive.  I worked

We put together a server with a pair of Cheetah drives (the 10k drives
presumably the same as you speak of) and then they kept failing.  Turned
out they didn't have adequate cooling and were slowly roasting
themselves to death.

Some 10K RPM SCSI drives didn't get so hot. Some years ago I put together a box with a pair of 9 gig Ultra SCSI 10K Quantum drives. The housings were gloss black with a few fins here and there. Absolutely quiet and never got above warm to the touch.
