For those of you with a Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST31500341AS, the guys over at TechwareLabs have managed to unleash the potential of this driving bringing it on par and even outperforming the Velociraptor...

Quote:

It looks like Seagate inadvertently created something marvellous by creating arguably the best consumer drive on the market. As you have seen from the benchmarks, the Barracuda 7200.11 ST31500341AS outperforms the Velociraptor in almost all categories.

... check out the article if you have the drive, don't mind losing a little bit of the capacity to gain a bit more speed. Speed of capacity, what is more important!

Enjoy!

Err whats new? Short stroking is a well known technique. This is not a mod per se.
