  • Western Digital kept their promises: The Velociraptor has a higher capacity, is noticeably faster than all the other SATA hard drives available and quite quiet. Furthermore the mean time between failures was increased, another accommodation to the ser...

  • Until Western Digital released the VelociRaptor, 2008 was on track to be a year dominated by Solid-State Drive headlines. Western Digital has quickly put a stop to that and released a major roadblock for the adoption of SSDs for enthusiasts. The We...

  • Very fast read and write times, runs cool and quiet
  • To get the full benefit of its 10,000rpm spin speed it should be installed in a system with other 10,000rpm drives
  • Use a pair of these drives to get the most out of your high-end desktop. Sure theyre expensive, but if you need the speed, they cant be overlooked. ...

  • Abstract:  The old Western Digital Raptors have been getting, well -- hmm, how to put this delicately -- trounced by standard 7200RPM drives, as capacities rocket toward (and beyond!) the terabyte point.High capacity drives pack more data onto the platter, which ...

  Published: 2008-08-26, Author: Scott , review by: pcworld.co.nz

  • Abstract:  Western Digital picked an extremely appropriate name for its new 10,000rpm (rotations per minute) hard drive. Dubbed the VelociRaptor, this new drive screamed through the PC World Test Centre’s performance tests. Velocity is clearly the raison d’etre ...

  • Si deseamos o necesitamos una unidad veloz, con un ajustado consumo energético y de robusta fabricación, el VelociRaptor de Western Digital es el candidato perfecto. La mejora en temperatura de trabajo (gracias al bastidor sobre el que se monta)...

  • · Muy, pero que muy rápido, · Se calienta poco, · Hace poco ruido
  • · Es muy caro, · 300GB pueden seguir pareciendo poco a algunos,
  • En el test de disco del Sisoft Sandra vemos cómo el Raptor de 36GB queda el último, lo sigue el Seagate, después el R74 y el Velociraptor gana por una diferencia del 46,5% al perseguidor más cercano, un primer resultado espectacular. El tiempo de acces...

  • Abstract:  VelociRaptor, éste es el agresivo título con el que Western Digital ha denominado a la evolución del nuevo modelo perteneciente a su ya conocida familia de los Raptor, la veloz gama alta de discos duros de esta compañía californiana. De entre las disti...

  • Abstract:  Mit bis zu 10.000 Umdrehungen pro Minute arbeitet die Western Digital Velociraptor WD3000GLFS - das verspricht hohe Transferraten und kurze Zugriffszeiten. Unser Test klärt, ob die Rekordjagd der 300-GB-Festplatte von Erfolg gekrönt ist. Western Dig...

  • WD hat alle Versprechen gehalten: Die Velociraptor ist - innerlich - nicht nur doppelt so groß wie ihre Vorgängerin, sie ist auch deutlich schneller als alle anderen SATA-Festplatten auf dem Markt und zudem erfreulich leise. Überdies gibt Western Digi...
