Review: PC Perspective
_______________
It has been a while since we have done a true hard drive review here at PC Perspective -- for the most part the world of
disk drives seems somewhat bland when compared to things like CPUs and graphics cards. Hard drives just seemed to get bigger, but not really faster, unless you count the move to
Western Digital's Raptor drives a big push forward.
When Western Digital wanted to send us their latest hard drive addition for desktop users, the
750GB Caviar SE16 I have here, I was interested but not overly excited. As it turns out, this drive is able to offer much of the same speeds that the new
Raptor drives can offer and also a much larger capacity. It's very rare you can get the best of both worlds though, so we'll have to see how it turns out.
