Mkruer 4 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 There were...then they took the page down. Not sure what's going on, as our PR contact confirmed the drives. Question, Can the Caviar Blue Line With 6Gb/s even burst to with 300MB/S throughput of data? I doubt it. This seems more of a marketing gimmick then anything really beneficial. But who knows maybe they will decide to include a gig worth of a buffering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ETA]MrSpadge 9 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 It's nice.. because it enables us to tell old WDs from new ones! If the 500 GB unit uses a single platter we could easily recommend it, as there'd be no fear of getting one of the old 250 GB platter ones. MrS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
