Seagate Momentus XT 500GB ST95005620AS Review

Testing:

Atto Disk Benchmark v2.34: Atto Disk Benchmark is another aged, but good, hard drive benchmark utility designed to test read and write speeds for different file sizes.

In ATTO, the 4K block read showed massive improvement with the Momentus XT. The rest of the tests were on par with the traditional mechanical drive with the exception of the 512K and 1M writes where it pulled ahead.
