PS: No, I don't know any USB system that can power any of the above drives, they use way too much power.

With the shift from the hard disk drive to the solid state drive these PRO HXS Series SSDs are a drop-in replacement option for a hard disk drive.

(These will also run the 10,000 rpm Raptor drives and even SSD's if you really want to push the boat out)īeats a "container-ed" hard drive system by a country mile, and with the "bare bones" drive in free air and not in a box, they tend to be a heap more reliable, just don't drop 'em and do keep them labelled! 2TB SSD PRO HXS - ssd drive - SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Drive - 7mm/2.5-inch - SSD - VisionTek The VisionTek PRO HXS Series 2.5' 7mm SSD is designed to bring ultra-fast, reliable storage to PC users. The beauty is you can use any make of "bare bones" hard drive, any spin speed and any size up to 4 TB, 2 1/2" and 3 1/2", and with a USB 3 or Sata 600 adapter card in your pc, you've got the hot swappable drive from heaven (there is a Sata 600 "toaster" from the same manufacturer, again, there are many other makes out there).ĭepending on the "sweet spot" for "cost per gigabyte" where you are, using a couple of 1 or 2TB drives, 7200 rpm and with 64Mb of cache would probably be a better price option. This make is not readily available outside Australasia, but there's plenty of other makes out there. You'd get a heap more mileage out of something like this: Even 5400 RPM hard drives can sustain greater than 100 MB/s for desktop-sized drives, and even 4200 RPM laptop hard drives can sustain greater transfer rates than the USB 2.0 interface's maximum practical limit. As for the external hard drive kits, Seagate is one that uses a 7200 RPM hard drive - but that particular line that uses such fast drives are desktop-sized and use a separate power supply (in the form of a "wall wart" AC adapter).Īlso, which version of USB do you have on your computer? If it's only USB 2.0, you might as well have only a 3600 RPM hard drive because the interface itself cannot sustain more than about 35 MB/s. All use drives that spin at only 5400 RPM or even 4200 RPM. Unfortunately, none of those that are factory installed in OEM enclosures spin at 7200 RPM.
If by "USB-powered" you mean that there is no separate power supply (meaning that power is supplied through the USB connection itself), you'd be limited to those micro drives that use laptop-sized hard drives.
