Any benchmark for that 500GB 32MB HDD?

-pWs-

im not using it lol.try searching in google duno got anot

don't know. maybe not at the meantime. i just bought it last week from a forumer. bought 2 units actually, another for my friend. a trade might be good perhaps

hey...
i can know the price for ITB WD hard disk and HDD dock station price?

1TB black = RM329
1TB green = RM284

anyone here can help verify if my transfer speeds are ok?
is there any significant difference of sata running in ide mode and native sata mode?

Seems normal to me. But then again I don't trust HDTach. HDTune is more accurate.

i see, i have HDTune too, will benchmark using HDTune and post here soon

I plan to get a internal harddisk for my desktop.
Purpose mainly for photo storage.
Any recomendation from you all?

For info, i am just using a Pentium 4 now. Motherboard support sata, but not sure about sata 2 or any more advance technology.

You still can use SATA 2 hdd if your Mobo does not support it.

1) Set jumper To run on legacy mode (150Mbps).

2) A converter to convert your normal 4 pin Power supply to SATA power supply.

Hope this can help

Thanks for the info, it definitely help.

Any HDD to recomend me? WD blue, green or black; or seagate; or any other.

WD Black , with high performance

to be honest, after using black, i dont think there is a huge difference. yes, its a lil faster but i think it wont be significant and not to mention is hotter.

but black comes with 5 years warranty,while the others oni 3,maybe im paranoid but it does give me more peace of mind

I'm using WD green.For me the performance is just as good as normal HD.But it run cooler than other HD.
I thought WD Green also comes with 5 years of warranty?

blue and green is 3 years,black 5 years
