Re: Official Sony Vaio F Series Owners Thread *Part 6*
Knocked my external hard drive once when not in use, and when I went to use it again it was not working. Turned out the drive only separated from the enclosure. So make sure you screw the drive in tightly.

Re: Official Sony Vaio F Series Owners Thread *Part 6*
Fishon,
Can you benchmark your esata enclosure? I would like to know how my HDDs compare to yours. Perhaps I can change a setting to speed the writes.Current speedtest.net internet speeds:

Re: Official Sony Vaio F Series Owners Thread *Part 6*
You obviously have different settings than I do. Do you cache writes? I am concerned about my writes only.

Re: Official Sony Vaio F Series Owners Thread *Part 6*
If given only those 4 choices, my order of preference would have been the Crucial, the Mushkin, the Corsair and the OCZ.
I always look at price first, then look for the most reliable in each price range. Speed is last because I feel that all of these drives are fast. Kind of like the difference between HDDs when one reads at 90MB/sec and one reads at 85MB/sec. The difference is not great enough to warrant a higher price and the difference is also small enough that I would base my decision on reliability.
Of course, this is only if price is similar. I would not pay considerably more for any of them if they are all the same capacity.
Just my opinion.Current speedtest.net internet speeds:
