Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1TB

Zitat

The Barracuda 7200.11 finds itself near the back of the pack in our system boot time test. At least it has some company; terabyte drives from Hitachi and Western Digital are also slow to boot our test system, suggesting that capacity may play a role here.

250GB platters and a full 7,200-RPM spindle speed are a potent combination in HD Tach's sustained read and write speed tests. In these synthetic tests, the 7200.11 manages higher throughput than any other drive by about 7MB/s.

The Barracuda turned in the highest IOMeter transaction rates we've seen from a 7,200-RPM drive, for example. When combined with a relatively strong showing under our demanding iPEAK multitasking workloads, the new 'cuda starts to look like it could make a lot of sense for workstations and even servers.
