For being the first 2TB drive out on the market, Western Digital got a lot of things right. The drive performs very well, even though it is not coined as a “performance drive.” Where this drive will really shine is in the datacenter storage ma...
Abstract: At first I want to thank Western Digital for providing me the Caviar Green 2TB HDD for testing and reviewing.Western Digital Green SATA HDDs reduce power consumption by up to 40% compared to desktop drives, are very silent and keep operating at low tem...
We’d like to start summing everything up by answering the question if the transition to new platters has added more speed? Perhaps unexpectedly, our answer is No. The speeds have got higher somewhat, but not much so. Right now, the performance benef...
