  • Abstract:  It's a sign of how fast the technology industry moves that no sooner had Hitachi broken unprecedented ground by releasing the first 1TB hard drive , people were already talking about who would be first to 2TB. Well, it actually took a little longer than s...

  • Abstract:  This 2TB disk can store 12 days worth of AVCHD video or four years of MP3s. That may seem pointlessly huge, but were sure some people will find a use for all that space. Surprisingly for such a cutting-edge product, its competitively priced, at 1...

  • Abstract:  Enthusiasts—even the ones who love powerful graphics cards and multi-core processors—are increasingly aware of the fact that energy conservation is in vogue. More and more new products are being given catchy labels with “green,” “energy efficient,” and...

  • Good overall performance, silent, cool, perpendicular recording technology, huge capacity
  • Expensive
  • Capacity wars have been going on for years in the magnetic storage hard drive arena. First it was Hitachi with the 1 TB hard drive, then came Seagate with a 1.5 TB drive last year and now the crown for largest capacity has been snatched by Western Digi...

  • En esta ocasión, Western Digital hizo gala con dos de sus mejores modelos de discos de 1 TB de la serie Caviar, sobre todo por parte del Caviar Black, con un rendimiento espectacular y un consumo energético más que respetable, logró arrasar en todas pr...

  • Du point de vue des performances pures, un disque dur se détache du lot, il s’agit du Caviar Black de Western Digital. Jamais mis à défaut, il s’offre le luxe d’être plus rapide qu’un VelociRaptor en tant que disque système, ce qui en ferait presque le...

  • Abstract:  Du coup, le Barracuda LP est quasiment aussi bruyant et chaud qu’un Samsung SpinPoint F1, qui n’est certes doté que de 3 plateaux fonctionnant à 7200 tpm ! A contrario le WD20EADS est très proche de la génération précédente à 1 To WD10EADS et reste du coup très discret tout en chauffant notablement moins..
