Desktop Computer Review: Seagate Savvio 15K ST936751SS - Hard drive - 36.7 GB - internal - 2.5" - SAS - 15000 rpm

This is a 15K RPM SFF 2.5" SAS drive. I have 4 of these set up in a 5.25" RAID enclosure. In RAID 0, these drives are blazing fast! Importing video from a ~15GB AVI file in Windows Movie Maker was more than 5 times faster with the RAID 0 array compared to a single Hitachi 3.5" 7200 RPM SATA II drive. They do tend to get really hot, but performance-wise, they're excellent!
