    Default 500GB Barracuda vs. 1TB Barrada


    500GB Barracuda vs. 1TB Barracuda
    which is faster?
    the specs says that a 500gb has 16mb of cache, and the 1tb has 32mb. does it mean nga much faster ang 1tb? experts please

    sorry typo error

    Barracuda gihapon guro.

    about the two drives, if single platter ra silang duha, 1tb would be faster because it has more density than 500 gb per plate = more data per spin

    About the buffer, I don't know unsay purpose ani

    ang mag determine sa speed kay ang interface man, dili man ang capacity.

    for example: sata 6> sata 3 > sata > IDE

    Sa pcx since pareho man ila interface, i think they are about the same speed. And magmatter ra man guro ang speed kung magcompare ka ug ssd vs hdd. If magcompare ka between hard drives, dili man kaayo noticeable ang difference.

    negligible ra ang speed difference. pero ang 500gb 7200.12 only has 1 spinning disk, it is slimmer and will have a lower power consumption & run cooler compared to the 1tb version

    boss i think ang deciding factor nimo ani kung unsa na capacity kinahanglan nimo, buying 1TB now is cheaper than buying 2*500GB HDD. if speed imong gusto, buy 2 pieces 500GB and install it using RAID

    yup, agree pud ko ani... negligible ang difference ana... kung gusto nimog paspas dyutay, 2 ka lower capacity then i RAID 0 nimo...

    dili nalang nato hisgutan SSD though kay OT na og mahal pud kaayo
