Storagereview heeft een review gepost van de nieuwe Quantum Fireball CR QM313000CR-A schijf. Het ding is 13Gig groot, maar nog steeds 5400rpm. Ondanks de relatieve lage rotatiesnelheid presteert-ie toch niet slecht vergeleken met de concurrentie (die inmiddels al lang op 7200rpm loopt):
In conclusion, the Fireball CR once again demonstrates the performance Quantum can squeeze out from a drive with relatively modest specs. Even so, it's clear that the CR can't quite nudge the now-aging DiamondMax 4320 out of the throne. Though it -is- one of the best 5400rpm drives available today, the Fireball CR once again makes us wonder what a high-density 7200rpm Quantum disk could do- a figment slowly materializing into reality in the upcoming Fireball KA.
