wd 640aaks is a two platter hdd, which means 320+320gb and its a perpendicular drive...compared to seagate, its only single platter hdd with larger cache...larger cache only comes in play when u copy a really large file for a long time...or geting higher burst speed...i wudnt say review right or wrong at all time, but judging my experience, after tested 2 units, i can feel a slightly beter performance for the wd when installing games...
All large HDD now all stores data standing up instead of lying down... (perpendicular technology le...).
Again, my curiosity is why so few people uses RAID0 when speed speed speed is so important for choosing a HDD?
Running RAID0 does not make your HDD die faster...
