2.5" Hard Drive Charts
Tom's Interactive 2.5" Hard Drive Charts compare notebook hard drives. Here you will find 2.5" UltraATA and Serial ATA hard drives manufactured by Fujitsu, Hitachi, Samsung, Seagate, Toshiba and Western Digital. The charts include all popular capacities starting at 40 GB as well as listing hard drives running at 4,200, 5,400 or 7,200 RPM. 15 benchmarks help to determine application perforrmance and low-level performance, giving you all the throughput, access time, interface and I/O performance results. The 2.5" HDD Charts also include the Cost per Gigabyte calculation and our Price/Performance Index, which helps you to find the best bang for the buck. In addition, we measured power consumption of most the notebook hard drives, so you can see which models are energy efficient and which ones aren't.
3.5" Hard Drive Charts
Tom's Interactive 3.5" Hard Drive Charts compare low-level as well as application performance of more than 40 popular hard drive models. The charts include all popular 3.5" desktop drive manufacturers such as Hitachi, Samsung, Seagate and Western Digital. They list UltraATA and Serial ATA interfaces, 7,200 and 10,000 RPM drives, and capacities between 36 GB and 1000 GB. 15 individual benchmark categories analyze read and write throughput, interface performance, average access time, Windows startup performance and several I/O access patterns that are imperative for server and workstation scenarios. Two comparison features make our Hard Drive Charts unique on the Internet: The Cost per Gigabyte calculation and the Price/Performance Index, which relates performance, capacity and cost. Prices are updated daily using the latest price information provided by TG Stores.
Desktop VGA Charts
Once again, we've updated the VGA charts with all of the latest cards on the market. The updated version includes a wealth of new information, as we've added a large number of new graphics cards from both Nvidia and ATI. From the Nvidia camp we've benchmarked the new DirectX 10 Geforce 8800 GT in both single card and SLI configuration, as well as the midrange Geforce 8600 GTS and low-end Geforce 8400 GS turbocache edition. On the ATI side, we've added the new DirectX 10.1 Radeons 3870 and 3850, and augmented the Radeon 2900 XT results with a crossfire configuration. We've also included the Radeon 2600 PRO and 2600 XT, both in single and Crossfire configurations as well. Finally, as the counterpoint for the 8400 GS turbocache, we've added the Radeon 2400 Pro hypermemory edition. While this might seem to be a large amount of information to soak in, our simple interface has proven invaluable to those of us who need to compare various graphics card performance in specific titles.
