Benchmark Setup
By: Sander Sassen |
To be able to evaluate the performance of both drives we'll be using SiSoft Sandra 2000, ATTO Disk Bench and TCDLabs HDtach, which are all synthetic benchmarks. We'll be comparing Quantum's first generation 10.000 RPM harddisk, the Quantum Atlas 10K, with the Atlas 10K II, to determine how well it stacks up.
