Raptors were fast as feck back in the day before ssds. Nothing was faster, they were the king. No one was running 20K server drives because they didn’t exist lol. 10k maybe, but they were server stuff that didn’t run on a desktop without expensive cards. Raptors/X/Velociraptors were the pinnacle hdd for desktop use in their time am I wrong? The 150s weren’t too bad for heat if you had a fan on them. I had a few of them squished into those old tin cans with a fan that you got with your stacker. My fan was a little better though.. Anyways, I suppose it doesn’t matter much now, but they kicked the snot out of everything that I remember being relevant back then. I didn’t have a Velociraptor though, I wanted one but they were as much as an ssd.. back then I would rather have less space and waaay more speed for the price. A windows install wasn’t 40GB, and games weren’t 100GB so you could make do with a few spinners for your stuff.
