WD VelociRaptor!


27yuyhu.jpg


Engineered for maximum speed! WD VelociRaptor, the newest member of our unique class of 10,000 RPM SATA hard drives, combines a SATA 3 Gb/s interface and 16 MB cache, to deliver performance that’s up to 35% faster than its speedy older brother.

Key FeaturesKiller Speed - Built on the performance bloodlines of WD Raptor, these 10,000 RPM drives, with SATA 3 Gb/s interface, and 16 MB cache deliver mind-bending performance. Not only are they 35 percent faster than the previous generation WD Raptor drives, but they also beat out all other competitors in the field.

Rock-solid Reliability - Designed and manufactured to mission-critical enterprise-class standards to provide enterprise reliability in high duty cycle environments. With 1.4 million hours MTBF, these drives have the highest available reliability rating on a high capacity SATA drive.

Double the Capacity - State-of-the-art technology packs twice the capacity per disk compared to its older brother WD Raptor resulting in 300 GB of high-performance storage space in this enterprise-class 2.5-inch drive. (Not compatible with notebook computers)

IcePack™ Mounting Frame - The 2.5-inch WD VelociRaptor is enclosed in a 3.5-inch enterprise-class mounting frame with a built-in heat sink that keeps this powerful little drive extra cool when installed in high-performance desktop chassis.

Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward (RAFF™) - Optimizes operation and performance when the drives are used in vibration-prone, multi-drive chassis.

SecurePark™ - Parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up, spin down and when the drive is off. This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in improved long-term reliability and increased drive protection when the chassis is moved.

5-year limited warranty

um raid 0 destes meninos bate os SSD que assombro ... :drooling::drooling:

Eu não diria isto.

Um dos novos OCZ SSD, faz 120 mb/s de leitura e 100 de escrita, que aliando as latencias de 0,x ms, deixa o raptor a milhas :D

Claro que em preço também:cool:

Gostei deste bixo, a ver se arrumo um para testar :D
 
Eu estou um bocado desiludido com os raptors ditos normais... Fazem um barulho terrivel :( Se estes fizerem o mesmo ou ainda mais, não entram aqui :rolleyes:



The Velociraptor achieves its new footholds of speed and storage as a result of its reduced, 2.5-inch size.

You're undoubtedly thinking about the ramifications of this, given that every modern desktop system under the sun fits 3.5-inch drives.

Well, Western Digital's one step ahead of the form factor. It's strapped each Velociraptor drive to a mounting mechanism that conveniently doubles as a giant heatsink for the drive itself. Dubbed the "Icepak," the all-black base allows helps ensure that the drive run at temperature and noise levels comparable to the Raptor X.


btw: penso que chegam a PT dentro de 1/2 semanas a cerca de 260€

Parece-me que é o primeiro grande passo para deixar de haver discos de 3,5.
A ideia do cooler está muito bem amanhada. Kudos para a WD.
O preço é que é um pouco alto, ou dito de outra forma há discos muito mais baratos e que dá para comprar dois e meter em RAID 0. Acho que esse vai ser o principal contra deste disco. De resto muito bom.
