Analysis and Conclusion:
I really went into this skeptical, I promise I did. But I’ve been using this drive daily for weeks, and I just can’t find a single weak spot. The only thing I can come up with is a slight increase in susceptibility to gyroscopic effects over a 5400 RPM drive, but laptop drives being laptop drives, they’re designed to cope with these stresses. It’s definitely more expensive than a slower drive, by a good 50% or so, but that’s about $40 that will make one of the things your computer does all the time something like three times as fast, and having experienced this I’d not just willingly pay the premium for the faster drive, I’d pay it eagerly.
Pro’s:
- Incredibly fast, compared to the cutting edge of two years ago.
- Incredibly big compared to the cutting edge of two years ago.
- Quieter than my cooling fans, and Apple cooling fans are nearly silent.
- Less power means less heat and longer battery life.
Con’s:
- Premium price for the extra speed.
