Abstract: SSD가 보급되기 이전에 가장 강력한 저장매체로 군림하던 것이 무엇이었을까? 바로 10000rpm의 회전 속도를 자랑하는 벨로시랩터 시리즈가 그 주인공이었다. 일반 하드디스크가 5400rpm 도는 7200rpm으로 동작하는 것에 비해 무려 1000rpm의 회전속도를 가진 벨로시랩터는 프리미엄 하드디스크로써 명성을 날렸다. 하지만 SSD의 등장으로 인해 프리미엄이라는 위치에 큰 위협을 맞게 되었다. 그런 이유인지는 몰라도 한참 동안 소식이 뜸했던 벨로시랩...
Abstract: 지난 20년간, CPU는 575배 빨라진 반면, 데이터가 저장되는 스토리지(HDD)는 19배 향상에 그치며 스토리지는 여전히 시스템 병목현상의 원인으로 손꼽힌다. 수치만을 본다면 최근에 오히려 스토리지 병목현상이 심화된 것으로 오해할 수 있지만, 하드디스크 또한 수직기록방식, Advanced Format 등 다양한 신기술이 더해지며 비약적으로 발전, 최근들어 병목현상은 오히려 줄었다. 하지만, 기계적 장치로 구동되는 태생적 한계로 하드디스크는 한계에 직...

Abstract: WD sends in a Velociraptor with a SATA 6Gb/s interface…Mighty big teeth with Mighty fast drive (for a mechanical drive) with the mighty SATA III interface. Enterprise class drives are used in environments which requires access 24/7 and fast enough access...
The "which drive" conflict has raged for a long time. The self-same people who thought the original VelociRaptor was too expensive for the tiny capacity then moved on to complaining how Solid State Drives are too expensive for their tiny capacity.As someo...
Abstract: Our WD6000HLHX drive is the latest update and brings the maximum capacity up to 600GB. (Its predecessor topped out at 300GB.)Retailing for US $329 or $0.55 per gigabyte the VelociRaptor is an expensive buy. WD's own 7200rpm 1TB Black Edition drive reta...
Abstract: The Western Digital Caviar Black 2TB and VelociRaptor 600GB are two of the fastest SATA hard drives money can buy. HDD performance almost always comes at an acoustic price, but are these drives quieter than the predecessors, and do their speed/capacity...
The Western Digital Velociraptor is the fastest hard drive we have currently reviewed and it still proves that in many cases, hard drives are still faster than SSDs and the ever increasing size of SSDs still has not matched that capabilities and capaci...
After taking a look at all these benchmarks we come to a single question: Is the hefty price tag of $260 really worth the gains? This depends on what exactly you are looking for. SSDs will offer better performance, but at the $260 getting a good one ...
You'll notice during our performance analysis that we've specifically not compared the VelociRaptor to an SSD, and this is because, while they're both forms of high-performance storage, we don't feel the two can be fairly compared. It'd be like comparing...
