I'm working on a *huge* series of Hard Drive articles that will hopefully be published over the next 2 - 3 months. The idea is to take real world testing to the next level to truly give you all the best possible I/O recommendations. The series of articles will cover everything from what drive to get to RAID controller performance and in much greater depth than you're used to.
What I would like to hear from you all is what you would like to see tested. When using your Windows machine, when do you feel that your hard drive is slowing you down the most - when do you feel like you could use a faster drive. Be as specific as possible with your responses, e.g. "When I'm launching Photoshop" or "Copying files" etc... Also try to keep your responses to single tasks only, but if there are situations that are especially taxing while multitasking you can list those as well.
I can't guarantee that we will be able to script every one of these scenarios into our benchmarks, but I will do my best to get as many of the most popular ones included as possible. Here's your chance to get the performance statistics that matter directly to you put into the reviews at AnandTech.
Thanks in advance
