Just got back from MicroCenter

So, I just got back from MC with a 300g VelociRaptor GLFSRT model, right? As far as I was expecting the GLFS model is suppose to have the cooling fins from front to back. I open it up and the fins are from side to side and on the sticker it says HLFS. What is the GLFSRT model suppose to be?

EDIT: f*ck, rt = return?

 

[Zap]

BLFS with no heatsink, making it a 2.5" enterprise drive for high density rackmount SANs

HLFS with "horizontal" heatsink fins and daughterboard for compatibility with backplanes and enclosures

GLFS with "longitudinal" heatsink fins, not compatible with backplanes and enclosures

RT = retail

RT-retail I thought of that after I though return. Makes sense but it was an HLFS in a GLFSRT retail box. Funny, I did want the GLFS for the front to back fins, but o well, i guess it will match my other v300g...
