The biggest performance jump I have experienced in the past year came from installing a Promise Ultra66 with an IBM DLTA 307020 hd (20GB, 7200RPM, 2MB cache). I purchased both from Dirt Cheap Drives ( http://www.dirtcheapdrives.com)overnight for less than $250.
 
The Promise drivers seem to be stable, and the drive is the quietest I've ever had (I can only hear it if my case is open.)
 
Yes, I know, this is not a "tweak", but I would spend the $250 in a heartbeat again.
 
Just my two cents...
