very good idea, we use VR’s in all our IT workstations, and 1TB just isn’t enough these days for storing our test VM’s and other data – we have had to drop down to 2 & 3 TB WD Black units.
SSD cache and VR higher cap drive would be fantastic.
I second this.
It has been two years and the latest refresh had 250 platters for 250/500 and 333 for the 1TB.
Advances in PMR and SMR this should be able to increased with greater density.
Adding a 8/16mb flash like the SG hybrid drive would further make the VR the fastest spinner available.
Until OS/RST will allow ATA passthrough with SSD in raid1 the VR is your best choice.
