Half-Terabyte Hard Drive Reviewed

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the thats-almost-big-enough dept.

EconolineCrush writes "The Tech Report has posted an in-depth review of Hitachi's half-terabyte Deskstar 7K500, the largest hard drive available on the market. The drive is compared with five of the latest drives from Maxtor, Seagate, and Western Digital, so the review serves as a good round-up of the fastest Serial ATA drives on the market. Performance testing is quite extensive, covering desktop applications, load times, file copy tests, multi-user workloads, disk-intensive multitasking, and even noise levels and power consumption."

    The following trojaned PC is hosting a load balancer for a network of phishing sites:

    http://65.162.56.73/ [65.162.56.73]

    Spam is being sent out sending people to that IP, which in turn redirects to a network of 0wned PCs all across the US.

    If you have resources, please DoS port 80 on that box.

    The ISP whose network it is on has already been contacted, they are slow to act.
