Western Digital VelociRaptor 1TB 10K RPM Hard Drive Review @ Techgage

People call me crazy for using a VelociRaptor in my main system and on the test bench but I like the speed and don't mind the noise that a powerful HDD can give you. Now you can have all that power with a 1TB storage capacity.

Need big storage, but can't compromise on performance? At a time when 1TB SSDs cost as much as an excellent gaming PC, the obvious choice becomes WD's VelociRaptor - which not only recently received a refresh, but also a 1TB model. Let's take a look at it, and see how it compares to WD's other current desktop hard drives.

Sadly even the 6GB VelociRaptor drives top out so if you want super blazing speed you'll need more than one of them in some sort of configuration that starts with an R and ends with an AID.
