discussion Western Digital Black 4TB HDD Review Comment Thread

[Dzzope]

What? Not that it matters.. but what I am saying is.. Is there a WD black that is ~ the same performance as the 4TB model reviewed but in 2- 3 TB?

Or do I have to go 4TB to get this performance and the reduced noise?

StableTrac - The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking during read and write operationswhich enables consistently higher performance. (4 TB and 2 TB models only)
