Hard drives are one of the major factors that limit the performance of your
system. Even if you have a great CPU to process the information and a lot of fast RAM to store the information, that information first has to be retrieved from the hard drive before it goes anywhere else. This is where the Western Digital Raptor 10,000 RPM 150 GB Hard Drive comes in. This is one of the top of the line hard drives available from Western digital. This particular hard drive is special because unlike the traditional 7200 RPM hard drives, this one spins at 10,000 RPM which leads to significantly smaller seek times thus producing huge performance gains.
