After extensive drive testing, Tom's Hardware proclaims, "With peak data rates up to 95 MB/s, the 750 GB top-of-the-line member in the
Caviar SE16 family is the fastest 7,200 RPM hard disk we've seen in our test labs to date." The review continues, "...our benchmarks should give
WD plenty to cheer about. In particular, the I/O performance in the file server and database server schemas is noticeably superior to that of other
7,200 RPM drives." (As evidenced by the graphs above.)
WD Caviar SE16 drives combine 16 MB cache with 3 Gb/s transfer rate for lightning-fast performance in
demanding desktop and workstation applications. Technologically advanced acoustics minimize noise while
cool drive operation and next-generation WD-exclusive technology features such as IntelliSeek™,
SecurePark™, and StableTrac™ result in significant advancement in SATA performance and reliability.
These drives are designed for use in the fastest PCs on the market, including high-performance business
computers and multimedia or gaming systems. Perfect for Windows Vista™.
