wow, i'm glad ya'll do porn. Look,
all of the components of a machine are important. Disk _IS_ important. Where do you think you DB lives? Slow diskhahahahaslow
dbhahahahaslow site.
Also pay attention to bus speed and link. The fastest proc/ram/disk in the world won't do you much good on a 100Mhz bus.
I'd be curious to see how many of the people with 'super huge' machines actually really need them. My experience in mainstream and _some_ adult work is that they don't. They DO however need to write better code, and learn how to build a db that makes sense and use indexes.
