news 28 Posted June 11, 2008 Hi, We've just posted a new article on our website, Hardware Secrets. Title: Western Digital VelociRaptor WD3000GLFS Hard Disk Drive Review Link: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/567 Category: Reviews Summary: VelociRaptor WD3000GLFS is a 10,000 rpm SATA-300 hard disk drive and in this review we will answer two questions: how much faster is a 10,000 rpm disk compared to a mainstream 7,200 rpm one? What is the best option, to have one 10,000 rpm disk or two mainstream 7,200 rpm disks in RAID0? Here is a snippet: "VelociRaptor WD3000GLFS is the latest 10,000 rpm drive from Western Digital, with 300 GB capacity, SATA-300 interface and 16 MB buffer. The faster the hard disk drive spins, the higher performance is, as it can read data from the magnetic plates at a faster rate. We always wanted to review a 10,000 rpm unit to see how much faster it is compared to a mainstream 7,200 rpm unit. Also, since 10,000 rpm drives are far more expensive than 7,200 rpm units, we were curious to see what provides a higher performance, a single 10,000 rpm drive or two mainstream 7,200 rpm drives in RAID0 configuration." A news post would be highly appreciated.
