Western Digital 45 GByte Hard Drive

Introduction

Five weeks ago, we took a look at six IDE hard drives between 15 and 30 GBytes. But working at 7,200 rpm, those drives target the high end IDE market, which means excellent performance and a higher noise level than with 5,400 rpm models. We got the latest high capacity drive from Western Digital, offering 45 GBytes at the standard revolution speed of 5,400. That makes it suitable for home or office computers with huge capacity requirements.
