Pros: incredible performance consider its 5400rpm spec. this drive even edges out my hybrid drive (momentus XT) by a notch. see results below. Cons: if i had to pick a con, i would say the access time is the weakest link of this drive. see more info below. Overall Review: when off a fresh install, you can get speeds up to 108MB/s of sequential read/write off the bat. however, the realistic real world performance after you have installed a few programs is more like 95MB/s sequential…

Pros: Western Digital hit a home run with the WD AV-25 drive. Although this drive is designed for – and excels at – video streaming, it also works well for general usage. As Newegg classifies the AV-25 as an internal desktop/laptop drive, let’s first look at its performance as a general-purpose drive: Overall read and write performance is exceptionally good for a 5400 RPM drive. Running the Passmark hard drive benchmark showed overall throughput of the AV-25 outpacing many 7200 RPM 2.5”…

Pros: – Quiet for HTPC – Small enough for mini-ITX – Large capacity for many hours of HD recording – Runs cool – Suited for DVR applications, which is what I am using it for. Cons: – None so far Overall Review: I am using this a my bedroom HTPC which is a mini-ITX HTPC that uses Windows Media Center and a networked SiliconDust HDHomeRun Prime to DVR TV. For the longest time I was using a 128GB SSD for both the OS and recordings but research made me paranoid enough to realize I was better off…

Pros: Pros: This drive runs EXTREMELY cool and quiet. It’s also quite fast. In HDTach on my AMD SB950 based chipset (SATA 6gbps) system, the drive managed to pull off a quite impressive 95mb/sec average read and a 15.6ms random access time. That’s almost as fast as my 7200.12 rpm drive! You can’t hear the drive spinning, but you can hear the occasional noise in a silent room with data being written to it. I temporarily had the drive hooked up via. eSATA, in a hard drive dock. Definitely not…

Pros: Quiet, small 2.5″ form factor, low power, and more than adequate speed for an always on HTPC or NAS. 24/7 reliability. Cons: None Overall Review: As soon as I got this drive, I installed it in an always on HTPC I have in my home. The HTPC previously had a 3.5″ SATA drive, but I replaced it with this and mounted it to the 2.5″ mounting bracket that the case came with and the drive worked as expected. As an Operating System drive, I noticed no decrease in performance from the 3.5″ 7200…

Pros: had this drive hooked up for little over 2 weeks running all the time. It isn’t running any operating system as of yet, using this as a Slave drive to run movies, doing back ups, file transfers and so far its been doing great, The drive runs Very quite and runs nice and cool, so far hasn’t gotten very hot. Cons: So far i haven’t run into any, Will post again if i do Overall Review: here are some specks that i got so far testing this drive. Sequential Read : 35. MB/s Sequential Write :…

Pros: Large Capacity, 2.5″ Form Factor, Quiet, Low Power, Low Heat Cons: Pricey compared to a 3.5″ drive with the same or better performance Overall Review: I have never been particularly loyal to a certain brand of disk drives. For a while I was buying nothing but IBM Deskstars until they started suffering from the famous “click of death” (Google it). I moved on to Seagate, Hitachi, Seagate, and eventually Western Digital. At this moment (subject to change) I have five 1TB WD-10xxx drives…

Pros: Quiet, cool, plenty of storage. When I first got my PS3 systems I upgraded to the largest drives available at the time (Western Digital 740GB drives) but always wanted more space. After hooking up my PS4, installing and downloading some games, and capturing and uploading some video clips I noticed I’d used quite a bit of space…which was rather troubling since I’d only had it for a week or so. I knew I’d want to upgrade the hard drive but hadn’t really looked into what was…
