- drachemorder, on 04/22/2008, -9/+24A velociraptor? If your computer breaks down, does it eat the user?
- MutatedNantuko, on 04/22/2008, -1/+11Clever girl.
- geoken, on 04/22/2008, -7/+16In the future, it may help your jokes if they contain humor.
- mark076h, on 04/22/2008, -0/+9looks sweet but is it faster than 2 WD RAPTOR 150's in RAID 0?
- ChromaVita, on 04/22/2008, -1/+8Clever girl...
- Ricochetbiscuit, on 04/22/2008, -3/+9No, but this thing definitely eats competing drives for lunch.
- gkrat, on 04/22/2008, -0/+6I heard it even opens doors.
- Ricochetbiscuit, on 04/22/2008, -3/+9OK, here goes... geoken, what kind of name is that, some sort of environmentally unconscious, geek-boy, dill-weed, lameness? ...Instant a-hole, just add internet and mix well.
- GrammarNazi3000, on 04/22/2008, -6/+11Q: Could god make a drive so fast that he himself could not write porn to it fast enough?
A: No, he was too busy not existing. - machocheese34, on 04/22/2008, -0/+5Im waiting for the T-Rex
- geoken, on 04/22/2008, -0/+4Yeah, it's pretty smart. If you're going for low storage space why not use the 2.5 form factor, then use the remaining space for a case that supports cooling and noise supression.
- cerilia, on 04/22/2008, -2/+5Let me introduce you to xkcd: http://xkcd.com/87/
- arcooke, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3This is awesome and all.. but their research would be better spent trying to find new ways to store data. Conventional hard drives need to go away. They're slow and mechanical parts are a no-no for something expected to store important information.
- shaneghai, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3The think the design is what's most surprising...I didn't expect a 2.5" drive at all!
- haikuFU, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3fap fap fap
oh wait, these are faster… fapfapfap - ghee, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3Shooooooooot heeeeeeeeeer!!!!!!
- CrudE, on 04/22/2008, -0/+2I've been needing another harddrive too

- geoken, on 04/22/2008, -1/+3It's a combination of my first and last name with a couple letters truncated off each.
Also, I wasn't responding to you but to the parent. - bigwophh, on 04/22/2008, -0/+2Except for the price per GB, I can't see anyone not liking this drive.
- minitrollster, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Nice comment
- carpespasm, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1He'll have to adjust the triangular raptor approach equation to factor for the increased speeds. I wonder if the injured velociraptor's leg still limit's it's speed to a constant or if the overall increase in top potential speed brings up the injured one's speed as well....
- Pureeviljester, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1yeah but how much is it?
- PATSCRU, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1I don't know about what's faster, but the single drive solution is definately more reliable than raid 0.
- PueSi, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1You can recover the data from a single drive, good luck trying that with a RAID 0
- mooninite, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Um... how so? If you lose one drive... either way you're screwed. RAID or not.
- PueSi, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1That drive is really fast 168MBs average read on RAID 0, imagine how fast it boots Vista.
- darkdriving, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1You're about 20 comments too late.
- Drakh, on 04/22/2008, -2/+3Yep! Check out the RAID benchmarks: http://www.maximumpc.com/article/the_new_fastest_h ...
- aflury, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1You're also about twice as likely to have one drive fail when you have two drives vs. one (duh).
- darkdriving, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1paganizondumbass
See, anyone can play! - bigwophh, on 04/22/2008, -2/+3Now that's funny!
- bossm4n, on 04/22/2008, -1/+2Nice to see Western addressing the heat/cooling issue with these drives. I've always found the 150 Raptors to run a bit hot.
- clesch, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Quite interesting how this new drive also had the lowest power consumption of the three compared.
I wish there was a toned-down mobile version of these available, for all the people that aren't willing to double their notebook's price by adding an SSD. - vault, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Looks it, and coming out in May:
"The WD Velociraptor will be available very soon in select Alienware systems and it should be in the channel sometime in mid-May. " - webroker, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Like every other NEW piece of hardware to hit the market.. I'll let everyone else test it out for me, before I go order one for myself.. ;)
- ZaZ2137, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1wat
- mtappenden, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Does it have go faster stripes???
- dmadip, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1its not noticably faster either
- saggis, on 04/22/2008, -1/+1That comment was nothing short of epic! Respect!
- cerilia, on 04/22/2008, -7/+7Wonder what xkcd's take on these will be...
- Baltiman, on 04/22/2008, -1/+1cue jurassic park gags
- Ricochetbiscuit, on 04/22/2008, -2/+1Hahah! Woops! OK, I take back everything I said then, sort of. On a related note, you need to find the reply link. :)
- gkrat, on 04/22/2008, -3/+1misscomment, l2 delete digg
- Sixotoo, on 04/22/2008, -7/+4Porn...U kidding? I keep Vista on my raptor..thats it. Porn stays on the slow tera where I can savor it. :)
- bryan567, on 04/22/2008, -4/+1looks sweet but will it blend?
- slightlygifted, on 04/22/2008, -5/+1what if it spins out of control and shoots of your computer and decapitates you?
- killbert24, on 04/22/2008, -7/+2You know what this means: faster reading of your porn files. Sweet!
