[Tech ARP] Western Digital 320 GB Scorpio Notebook Hard Drive Review

[news 28]

Hello fellow editors!

 

Tech ARP ( http://www.techarp.com/ <http://www.techarp.com/>'>http://www.techarp.com/> ) has just

posted the Western Digital 320 GB Scorpio Notebook Hard Drive Review.

 

Quote - Many of us have probably wondered why Western Digital never

came out with a 7200 RPM notebook hard drive. Well, they didn't need to.

 

Their Scorpio family of 2.5" hard drives may run at "only" 5400 RPM but

they are actually fast enough to rival desktop hard drives running at

7200 RPM! Unbelievable?

 

Here's a quote from the review :-

 

"Although Western Digital did not reveal it, the Scorpio is

certainly making use of perpendicular recording technology to achieve

its performance levels. Of course, there's only so much they can do with

perpendicular recording technology. It is likely that the Scorpio also

uses four platters to attain its remarkable storage capacity of 320 GB."
