  • Abstract:  Western Digital is currently selling the WD Caviar RE2 500GB SATA 3.0Gb/s hard drive model WD5000YS. As several members have already installed this hard drive in an Apple Mac Pro, AMUG thought it might provide an interesting review. The Maxtor Maxline ...

  • Proven faster than the Seagate 500GB, Priced very well on select websites, Includes sturdy S-ATA cable, Perfect for RAID,
  • Need to use Molex connector if you use included SATA cable.
  • After giving the RE2 500GB a test, I have to say I am impressed. I didnt expect it to beat out the Seagate like it did, in every single test. Since this is an enterprise class drive, I guess its to be expected. Whats not to be expected though, is t...

  • Lots of storage, Reliable
  • Not ultra quick The Final Word This drive represents low cost and high capacity storage, compared to SCSI or Fibre Channel drives, and is a worthy storage option for small to medium businesses that require a large capacity solution for their servers.

  • Abstract:  Difficile de comparer des unités aussi différentes. Quand certaines sont plutôt destinées à un usage grand public de stockage, d'autres sont plutôt spécialisées dans des tâches plus contraignantes comme la mise en RAID ou l'accès aléatoire multi-utilisateurs. Les premiers sont..

  • Performances dans la moyenne, Chauffe peu
  • On trouve plus rapide, On trouve plus silencieux, Temps d'accès plus long que la moyenne
  • Sans être mauvais dans les différents tests, le RE2 n'arrive pas à se distinguer des autres disques durs testés. Au final, on ne lui trouve que peu d'intérêt....

  • Abstract:  Western Digital var lenge vår favoritt blant disk-produsentene, og leverte rimelige, raske og svært stillegående disker. Etter hvert har konkurransen blitt hardere, og forspranget har blitt innhentet av konkurrentene, spesielt på støy. I dag er...
