Performance in WinBench 99

We ran the classical benchmark several times. First, the drives were formatted as one partition with their full capacity; next we created just one logical partition on them with a size of 32GB. We did this for both: FAT32 and NTFS. In the tables below the best results are highlighted in blue, and the lowest – in red.

And these are the linear read graphs for the drives:

  • Hitachi HTS726060M9AT00 (Graph);
  • Hitachi HTS548040M9AT00 (Graph);
  • Hitachi DK23FB-60 (Graph);
  • Hitachi DK23FB-40 (Graph);
  • Hitachi IC25N080ATMR04-0 (Graph);
  • Hitachi IC25N040ATCS04-0 (Graph);
  • Seagate ST94811A (Graph);
  • Toshiba MK8025GAS (Graph).

None of the drives revealed any problems concerning the quality of the media, save for the Hitachi IC25N040ATCS04-0 that belongs to the old Travelstar 40GN family. The graphs of the Hitachi drives from the Travelstar 80GN and 5K80 families display the effects of Adaptive Formatting technology: the transfer line is fluctuating with certain amplitude.
