Western Digital Scorpio 2.5” HDD: Better Late Than Never (page 2)Category: Storage [ 04/06/2005 | 04:22 PM ] Testbed and MethodsWe used the following benchmarking software:
The testbed was configured as follows:
We tested the drive using the generic drivers of the OS. The drives were formatted in FAT32 and NTFS file systems as a single partition with the default cluster size. In some cases, specifically mentioned below, we created 32GB partitions (FAT32 and NTFS, default cluster size). In order to make a more objective performance analysis, we compared WD800VE drive against three similar solutions from Hitachi and Samsung, featuring the same storage capacity, and against Seagate drive with 100GB storage capacity, because unfortunately, we didn’t have an 80GB model at our disposal at the time of testing. The results obtained for the smallest member of the WD Scorpio family, the 40GB WD400VE are given for your information in the tables only, and are not present on the diagrams. <%BANNER[banner_468x30]%>
