The SSD drive sperforms twice as fast as the Hitachi but with only 64GB compared to a 1TB drive. We can see that the Hitachi drive has quite decent speed overall and with 1 TB of storage it seems like a great choice.
Conclusion:
For a small amount of 86$ you can get this drive. Its fast and offers alot of storage capacity, what I also noticed was that it was nowhere near the 250GB in either noise or heat. Even under testing the drive remained somewhat cooler than the Western Digital drive.
I think the numbers speak for themselves in this case and I can for sure recommend this Hitachi drive, and I will make sure that in the future to look for Hitachi drives as they have left a good mark in my book.
Pros:
+ Fast
+ Stays cool
+ Quite silent
+ Well packed
Cons:
- None so far!
