EXPERT REVIEW

Performance

We used HD Tach to test the low-level performance, which would give us a clear-cut picture of the core ability of the drive. To test the file system and desktop performance, we used SiSoft Sandra's File System Benchmarking module.

HDTach 2.7

HDTach 3.0

Where can you get this in India?

Now that 1 TB drives are down to US $260, and fast falling daily-then pricing of 18.5k is predatory.

gr8 performance "'Considering the price/performance ratio and the novelty of being a 1TB drive, the premium is justified, but it will take a lot of price cuts before it becomes a more popular choice for the average consumer."' I guess which average customer needs 1000gb?? Its only for gamers.
