Enthusiasts are always looking for the fastest thing they can get their hands on, especially when it comes to hard drives. Western Digital has had great success with their Raptor line over the years but inevitably someone is always looking for something bigger and faster. For some high reliability is the key, and when combined with outright speed you have an extremely attractive product. Today's hard drive market is starting to grow towards enterprise level hardware, which is SAS. SAS, or Serial Attached SCSI, is the server grade storage medium of choice these days. Most new servers ship with SAS RAID cards capable of hot swapping 8 or more ultra fast hard drives via backplane. While this is a bit much for most consumers, we have our friends the enthusiasts. At a maximum speed of 15,000rpm SAS drives are no joke when it comes to access times, only SSD's offer anything faster, and while prices are quite high, the extreme speed is extremely attractive.
