  • We want to say a few words about the Samsung SpinPoint F4 first. The company decided to introduce new platters into small-capacity products and this solution seems to be right. The SpinPoint F4 is fast, inexpensive (at least, inexpensive to make) and ...

  • Abstract:  Western Digital’s HDDs get all of our praise. They are excellent in server tests, win PCMark, perform nicely under multithreaded loads, and rout their opponents in the defragmentation and WinRAR tests.

  • So you have amazing performance along with a large capacity, sounds perfect doesn't it? The only issues with Western Digital's 2TB Caviar Black is its price and limited availability. A price I'm sure will drop over time. But when you are gett...
