LanOC Reviews Western Digital 2TB Caviar Black Hard Drive
08 January 2010 Source: www.lanoc.org
Hard Drives continue to get larger and along with lager capacity the they also continue to get faster. What that means for us is that Western Digital's recently released 2 TB Caviar Black Hard Drive is not only one of the largest drives on the market it's also one of the fastest.
LanOC Reviews take a look at the 2TB Caviar Black and test it to see how it stands up against SSD's, High RPM Enterprise class drives, and Western Digital's own Velociraptor. Considering the performance they have seen out of 1TB and 1.5TB drives in the past, it will be interesting to see how the numbers come out.
As you can see the 2TB Caviar Black performed admirably...
...The Caviar Black out performed both the 1.5Tb drive from Seagate and Western Digital's own Velociraptor; impressive!...
The 64MB cache helps it get that impressive Burst performance that almost matches the Crucial SSD...
...So you have amazing performance along with a large capacity, sounds perfect doesn't it?
