What is your opinion on the Raptor X 150 gigabyte hard drive?
Raptor X 150GB HDD

I like the transparency
Matthew Harris
They are great. I've got a 36 gig 1st gen raptor that still works, and a 150 and 300 gig raptor as well but I have since retired them all and just use ssds instead.
They used to be the patricians choice of hard drive
Jaxon Johnson
These used to be the pre-SSDs. SSDs made them obsolete.
Jordan Gomez
Designing a hard drive with a window is not as easy as you might think.

Jason Kelly
Weren't these quite noisy and resonating too?
Michael Myers
1) noisy af
2) obsoleted by SSDs
3) if you're offered to buy one don't, it's probably worn out after a decade or more of use.
Christopher Russell
If you dont enjoy the sound of a raptor churning through data you are a literal zoomer who needs to gtfo
Nathan Diaz
I think it's a kickass product.
Nolan Perry
Aren't those overclocked notebook harddisks?
Liam Robinson
No thats their successors the Velociraptor series. They're 2.5" disks but 15mm thick.
Ryan Jenkins
>no new videos for two years
I miss Rodney. He was the chilled Jow Forums dude.
Michael Morgan
I run one in my G5, it’s pretty nice.
Maybe if you’re some kind of fragile snowflake, I haven’t noticeably heard a hard drive since like 2002.
Robert Sanchez
UNFORTUNATELY
THE MOTHERBOARD TRY
IS NOT
REMOVABLE

Now that's gangster
Zachary Turner
Didn't really care for these (although I had more modest WD black at one time). Absolutely obsolete now with SSD.
James Howard
Under rated
Justin Anderson
i took some apart for the magnets the other month
the raptors have the strongest magnets out of them all, that's all these old drives are good for
unless you want 150gb of cold storage
Alexander Adams
Raptor drives are outdated and irrelevant, SSD is faster and higher capacity these days and 7200RPM drives have 16TB of storage for massive capacity
David Thomas
Loud.
Wyatt Nelson
I remember the dual raptor days but I didn't own any.
Kayden Gray
why?
i got a dying drive once, removed the cover and made a new one with some transparent film thing and it worked as well as it would with the original cover.
Hunter Morgan
They had a nice hum to them
Kayden Martinez
Completely and utterly obsolete. Solid-state media made high RPM HDDs obsolete in every metric.
There's a reason why 10K and 15K SKUs are now entirely legacy inventory.
