Western Digital WD600AB

by

Without the label, you could not possibly distinguish the 600AB from other actual WD drives.

The Western Digital 600AB has already been available for some time. That may be the reason for its low price: While the Maxtor and Seagate drives cost around $ 150, the Western Digital can sometimes be purchased for less than $ 130.

The Business and Highend Disk WinMarks are excellent tools for determing the performance of a hard drive with real applications. This is where Western Digital's strength lies, rather than in the area of data transfer speed.
