WD VelociRaptor Hard Drive

WD VelociRaptor Hard Drive

Replaced my aging 74GB WD Raptor (which I purchased second hand 2 years ago!) with the brand new 300GB VelociRapor 10,000 rpm SATA hard drive.

Its unbelievably fast and is facinating that it is actually a 2.5" hard drive in a 3.5" heatsink/adaptor.

Its not the same form factor as laptop hard drives but the same as 2.5" SAS server hard drives.
