WD VelociRaptor 600GB Review + BenchMarks

                                        Hard Drives has been the main storage devices from many years almost when computer was invented and in today’s world HDDs are still used for storing the data as they had great capacity with low prices as well .Western Digital has its own image in the mind of people and they really do well with their Caviar green and black hard drives and they are currently the leading HDD manufacturer in the world. Western Digital HDDs are famous for their performance and reliability. Today we going to take a look at Western Digital VelociRaptor series HDD which is claimed to be the Fastest HDDs in the market and today we have Western Digital VelociRaptor 600GB HDD of SATA 6 Gbps interface to review.

                                         Western Digital VelociRaptor 600GB has the same look as the previous 300GB HDD has and the big giant black deign is really cool and become the face mark of Western Digital VelociRaptor HDDs. The Western Digital VelociRaptor 600GB has the SATA 3 interface and the great rotational speed of 10,000 rpm which is really cook for read / write speeds as well as for the latency rate which is really needed for the faster boot of OS and Western Digital still claims that Western Digital VelociRaptor HDDs are the fastest on the market. The Western Digital VelociRaptor 600GB has the great read and write speed and especially the latency rate is really great and the best as an HDD. The 10,000 rpm is the good thing and the bad at the same time because that high speed of rotation causes more noise as well and the most of the users really hate the noise and especially if it comes from the HDD. Any way the Western Digital VelociRaptor 600GB still brings the Windows 7 ultimate x64’s desktop screen in just 17 seconds and its really great and to be honest it the best time for any HDD and no one other comes near to 20 seconds as well.

Now lets run some BenchMarks to see the performance results….

                           Western Digital VelociRaptor 600GB is still a great drive to have but its noisy. It also has the best latency rate and the fastest in win 7 boot than any other HDD in just 17 seconds and look really cool in the monster design which becomes the face mark of Western Digital VelociRaptor HDDs. It cost a little more as well but still a long way to go as far as capacity is concern because its has 300GB,600GB,1TB versions and some people want to have at least 2TB HDD as storage device, not for booting.  

• Good Performance.
• Nice Design and look.
• Fastest Win7 boot.
• Lower latency Rate.

• Noisy and Runs a bit hotter.
• Expensive.
