Hitachi's 500GB SATA-II Reviewed

Doggie Fizzle writes "The specifications for the Hitachi Desktstar 7K500 are impressive. 500 GB of disk space, 16 MB of cache memory, and 3.0 Gbps of transfer speeds are about as good as you are going to get in today's hard drives. The only category that might be rivaled is transfer speed, but that would require RAID or an Ultra320 SCSI drive to do so. This BigBruin review matches it up with some Seagate drives to show off its performance."

so guess what 4 of those drives will have as througput...
And btw: you raid royally sucks ass. 4Raptors should be at least 150MB sustained at the beginning... But let me guess: shitty software raid on a pci attached SATA controller, but trolling (er, i mean bragging) aorund with the specs of you l33t shitmachine.
