I bought one when I saw buildapc raving about the EXOS but now I’m second guessing looking here. Everyone assumed it was a barracuda? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Jumpierwolf0960@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago Yeah, I've heard good things about exos drives. Especially the dual actuator Mach.2 ones like this one. They're supposed to be really fast. I've heard that they reach 500MB/s reads but mine got 300MB/s in crystal disk benchmark. Mine is still in the enclosure btw, so that could be limiting it. permalink fedilink source parent
