@ 2010/06/16If I can describe the G.Skill Falcon II in one word, I would have to
go with "fast" because this drive performs extremely well, especially when
compared to the 5400RPM drive I am used to. With read and write speeds
upwards of 150 MB/s, everything just feels so much snappier. Programs seem
to open almost instantly, file transfers take less time, and my old Dell XPS
m1330 laptop has become very snappy and feels like new again. So what's the
catch? There is only one and that is the price that you will have to pay for
this level of performance: over $2 per gigabyte of storage as compared to a
few cents per gigabyte for conventional magnetic hard drives.
