Hello fellow editors! :)

posted the Western Digital 500 GB Caviar GP Hard Drive Review.
Quote - Western Digital's line of Caviar GP have been considered by
many as a value-grade hard drive because of its low price. However,
nothing can be further from the truth.
Recently, we picked up a 500 GB model for our tests and we were most
impressed with its performance. Not only did it deliver a large storage
capacity using only two platters, it also delivered very good
performance numbers. For more details, take a look at our comprehensive
review.
Here's a quote from the review :-
"The use of perpendicular recording technology allowed Western
Digital to deliver a storage capacity of 500 GB using only two platters.
Fewer platters mean lower costs and lower power consumption. The high
areal density achieved using perpendicular recording also greatly
increased its platter-to-buffer transfer rate. Little wonder how it did
so well in our benchmarks."
