Check out Part 2 of Club Overclocker’s review of Momentus XT. This time they went RAID!
“When the Hybrid Momentus XT debuted in May, we were very impressed with the drive. The drive performed better then we expected and with a price that was way below the cost of an SSD. Today, we looked at two hybrids in RAID and were equally impressed. The performance of the Momentus XT really improved with the addition of a second drive in RAID. The price and performance of these drives make them very attractive. I got read performance that was on par with SSD’s, 1TB of space and the total cost was $260. Club Overclocker Recommended!”
Key Takeaways:
- The Momentus XT really picks up while in RAID
- The performance that you get for your money is outstanding
- I’m getting read performance that is on par with the SSD, 1TB of storage and the total cost is just $260
- The Momentus XT performs very well, completely blowing away the typical laptop drive

I am suprised that the NAND flash read cache on the drive can adapt to being in RAID 0! Amazing how it can predict what data your using in this config.
