WESTERN DIGITAL RE2

Windows XP Performance


The testbed used is comprised of the following components:

Motherboard Asus PVL-D
CPUs AMD Opteron 275, x 2
Memory Apacer PC2-3200 DDR2-400 1GB
Power Supplies PC Power & Cooling Turbo Cool 850W SSI
Boot HDD Seagate Barracuda 40GB
Cooling Spire Cooler Verticool
Video Card ATI Rage XL on the motherboard

The operating system is Windows XP Professional 64-bit Edition.

Unfortunately, HD Tach 3.0.1.0 RW would not complete any tests with the RE2. 

Therefore, we are left with the ever-reliable ATTO Disk Benchmark:

Comparing this performance to the Barracuda ES, we see that the RE2 pales in comparison...  The Barracuda ES simply smashes the benchmarks with numbers in the high 70MB/s range.
