Re: replacing system drive
by Winston A. Cely on Aug 31, 2009 at 1:30:33 am

I've actually already got the drive, wiped it, and reinstalled just the apps I need for work. I have noticed a difference between this drive and the previous 7200 drive I was using. Startup is noticeably quicker, opening apps and Finder windows is MUCH quicker, along with searches, previews and others tasks of that nature. I haven't had the chance yet to see if there's any difference in the pro apps yet.

As for how I picked, I knew I wanted a faster drive, so I started there, but for me it really comes down to the real world reviews. I'll first use something like CNET to get a few drives to look at, but then I'm looking at personal product reviews and go from there.

BTW, I did get the Velociraptor from Newegg. I'm loving it.
