I just bought a new 1.5 Terabyte drive for my machine and the performance
just crashed.
It is a "Western Digital Caviar Green" ( Manufacturer part#
"WD15EARS" )
Accourding to specs. it's a 7200 rpm SATA with 64 k cache. Just wondering
if any other people have noticed issues with this or similar drives. Or are
large drives just slow?
I was used to using a 130 GB 15k RPM SAS drive before. Is the performance
difference so drastic between SAS and SATA? Or large versus small drives.
Or 7200 rpm versus 15k RPM.
Another mistake I might have done is that I just made one huge partition.
Could that be my performance killer?
