  • Vendus respectivement 230€ et 300€, les Red 6To et Red Pro 6To ont ravi les trois testeurs du jour. Bon niveau de silence et bonnes performances, que demander de plus ?Pas grand chose à vrai dire, et si le Red Pro est plus orienté TPE / PME, il fera aussi...

  • Les disques durs grands publics de 4 To sont moins nombreux sur le marché que les 3 To, Toshiba étant par exemple absent de ce marché alors que Seagate ne propose pas de modèle 7200 tpm. Cet état de fait combiné à notre volonté de nous concentrer sur l...

  • Prestazioni casuali ridotte,
  • Ci sono diverse cose da considerare quando acquistate hard disk per il vostro NAS. La prima è il prezzo, molto importante a causa dell'enorme spesa da affrontare quando si acquistano più unità per ciascun sistema. Affidabilità e reputazione sono la second...

  • Il WD RED WD40EFRX continua sul percorso tracciato dal WD RED WD30EFRX e permette all'azienda di espandere il suo portfolio NAS. Il Seagate NAS HDD ha un degno concorrente. Come mostrano i benchmark, il focus è sulla realizzazione di un prodotto solido, f...

  • Western Digital con questi nuovi WD Red ha fatto decisamente un ottimo lavoro creando l'hdd perfetto per un piccolo sistema NAS, con prestazioni che non hanno nulla a che invidiare a drive di fascia più alta. La cosa che si nota di più è sicuramente la...
