Western Digital VelociRaptor. IMO.

WD products r reliable and best performance and good service support

It very well depends on what you want to use it for - some extremely high end drives may not be suitable for regular desktop usage. You'd don't need that kind of performance/reliability on your home PC.

So I'd say, horses for races maxim would hold quite apt here.

whats the difference between the 640AAKS abd the 640AACS??

^^difference is speed... but if you will use it via USB, it wont make a difference as that will be the bottleneck

 

[saintsinner]

^^ you won't get the AAKS anymore. its only AACS now. the greenpower ones.

A better alternative would be the seagate 500GB 16MB or 32MB

FALSE AAKS is avl too Amarbir had some. Even if he doesnt, stock will arrive pretty soon I guess since it IS in production.

I've ordered 640AAKS from Amarbir 2 days back so its very much available.

For enclosures AACS will be better as its supposed to run cooler than the AAKS.

 

[wingmysoul]

which one will give higher speeds when used as a internal HDD??

whats the difference in price between the two??

AAKS is faster when used internally. Difference of ~200 Rs max i guess.

 

[Aces170]

AACS not only will run cooler, but will also consume less power. IMO its a btter deal then AAKS which is faster, but in real world exp. will not make a lot of diff. If you gonna run a system 24hrs AACS is a better option, I dont know why ppl are downgrading the series a lot...

I am running a Velociraptor based system and this 10K drive is significantly faster at firing up apps or accessing data than the 7200 RPM drive it replaced. Definitely worth it as a system drive until SSDs come down in price.
