10k and 15k drives aren't "true" 3,5", but closer to 2,5", even though the casing is the standard 3,5" size (open one if you doubt this). Usually, these drives have similar density as their respective 7k2 drives, and thus higher speed because of the spin rate.

Det er et elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med fremmed opprinnelse. I de fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer på norsk. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
