Western Digital Scorpio WD2500BEVS 2.5-inch SATA HDD Review

HotHardware takes a look at one of the largest 2.5″ hard drives on the market, the 250GB Western Digital Scorpio WD2500BEVS. At 5400RPM, it may not be the mobile speed king, but this 2.5″ SATA hard drive offers a plethora of nice features, like an 8MB cache and WD’s WhisperDrive and ShockGuard technology. Plus, the benchmarks might just surprise you about how well a 5400RPM mobile drive can perform.

..If you want one of the largest capacities available in a 2.5″ hard drive, then you will have to consider the Western Digital Scorpio WD2500BEVS. And that is a good thing, based on how well the drive performed. We would use the Scorpio WD2500BEVS to replace the drive in our Toshiba Portege M400 without hesitation, more so for the performance gain than the capacity increase in our case.
