When will Seagate release a 10,000 RPM SATA drive?

[Alansan]

I've been waiting to get a SATA 10K RPM drive from Seagate for a long time. I simply don't trust WD drives. Anyone know when it will happen?

They probably won't, just not a HUGE demand. It's big because we know computers, joe blow wouldn't know what the hell we're talking about.

do they not feel bad with western digital blowing away the 7.2k and some of the 10k server line away in benchmarks? =/

raptors have the gaming crowd and the performance crowd going for it, seagate will need a lot to crack that market share i think
raptors have 5 year warranty like seagate drives, normal WD is 3 yrs

why would they try to undercut their own 10K rpm scsi line?

Doesn't WD have a 10KRPM SCSI line?

They both have 15K rpm SCSI lines now I believe. I'll do fine with the Fujitsu 10K RPM U360 drives in my server 🙂

No

The 1st Raptor I had developed corrosion on the SATA connection, keeping it from working. The RMA I got a year ago has been humming along fine, though.
