Agent_H Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 So I went ahead and ordered a Raptor X 10,000 rpm 150 gig HD. Wow, if you are looking for an upgrade without rebuild a pc I recommend this one. I start windows now in 4 seconds and maps for games load like crazy. I also have noticed a slight fps increase in FEAR performance. Any one have experience with these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris64 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 So I went ahead and ordered a Raptor X 10,000 rpm 150 gig HD.

I also have noticed a slight fps increase in FEAR performance. Any one have experience with these? I have thought about purchasing one of them before, but I'm really partial to Seagate drives. I have just always had good results with them and until recently they were the only company offering five year warranties. As I understand it, in benchmarks the difference between a 10K & a 7200RPM drive of equal size,cache,I/O is minimal. With the high capacity perpendicular recording drives now the difference between a 7200RPM drive & a 10K is even further reduced. In some benchmarks I have actually seen the 7200RPM drive beat the Raptor by a millisecond or two. I'd love to see specs of someone with a Gigabyte iDrive, though. I've always wondered what the performance is out of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earzz Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 (edited) Just run 2 74's in raid 0, thats outrunning a single 150 with ease. Even 2 7200 rpm disks are outrunning a single raptor. I love the permormance but i would never buy any raptors again they are just tooo fecking noisy. And i can tell got 3 of those noisy bastards.
