Hard disk drive capacities have increased more (skyrocketed is more like it) in the past 5 years than in the 20 years prior and although we've yet to reach the point which I've been waiting for (drives exceeding 20TB in capacity) still we do have models w...

When we finally started testing the SAS 12Gb/s variant of the Enterprise Capacity 3.5 V4 6TB model we had two goals in mind, first to find out how it compared to its SATA brother and second to see if it would top our charts. Well having tested several SAS...
