Hello All,
I am seriously considering purchasing a Western Digital VelociRaptor, due to it's 10,000 RPM speed. I'm looking to get the best hard drive speed I can, without bumping up to an SSD and spending the big bucks.
1. Will my MBP 2.33 GHz Core 2 Duo (Mid-2007) be able to take full advantage of the fast spin rate, or will I be wasting money on such a fast drive?
2. Does anyone have any positive or negative experiences with the VelociRaptor line?
3. How important is cache? The VelociRaptor has 16MB, which is the highest I've seen in the 2.5 variety.
Thanks in advance for any help!
