SATA Hard Drive with a Kick: Western Digital's Raptor Put to the Test
May 1, 2003 – 1:01 PM
Although it only serves up a meager 36 GB, it offers a lot more than you'd normally expect from an IDE hard disk drive. The Raptor, alias WD360 is a new hard disk drive that is attracting considerable attention to itself due to two major new features: it spins at 10,000 rpm and comes complete with Serial ATA. The highlight: it's supposed to be good enough to stand up against SCSI in the lower and middle server segment. Our test demonstrates whether this really stacks up.
