[QUOTE="danb, post: 889595, member: 62850"] Are you suggesting that there is a way to optimize IOPS for HDD, independent of SSD performance? If something is slower on a HDD, it is surely slower on a SSD as well. Other vendors have figured it out, and Microsoft will too at some point. WD has not been around as long as some of the other vendors, and it takes time to work out the kinks. Trust me, I know ;). WD truly is great, but just like with everything, it is a work in progress. The prompts are incredibly confusing, but this can be fixed as well. But overall... over the next few years WD will probably take over the consumer and business markets completely. The only thing that might remain are the niche products that complement WD rather than compete with it. Just a guess ;). Please present some actual facts with hard data and empirical evidence (instead of opining incessantly) and we will see if people can handle the facts or not. [/QUOTE]
