http://live.pirillo.com/ – How fast is your hard drive? Is speed everything? YES! IT! IS! One viewer wrote in to ask why he found a 500GB hard drive for a much cheaper price than a 250GB drive. Remember, the size is not all that matters.

Are you comparing apples to apples? Or is it apples to kiwi? No matter. The fact is, you have to make sure you are comparing drives that are actually similar. There are many things to look at when choosing a new hard drive. You have to consider write speed, read speed, Revolutions per Minute (or RPMs), and even benchmarks. Research, compare, and research again! A hard drive isn’t only about capacity, it’s also about connectivity options. Every model and brand is going to differ. What exactly is it you are looking for as far as performance? Compare several brands side by side. Look at those benchmarks, read as many reviews as you can possibly get your hands on.
