    Unlike regular desktop drives, with a 40%~100% improvement in latency or loading speed, you will notice a improvement over traditional hard drives.

    I bought this as my OS hard drive. I was considering a SSD but opted out and just got a high performance HDD. So far, the choice has not been a disappointing one and this HDD has been performing within my expectations. (Read More)

    Very reliable drive for a gaming system, i have had no issues so far playing mmorpg which can be quite taxing on some hard drives, i know this because i lost 2 7200 rpm drives to these games already, if you are going to use them for gaming or any other demanding activity i recommend to still add a cooling option for them if you are able to.
