Abstract: WD is aggressively exploring higher capacities. The 640GB Scorpio Blue provides ample capacity and sweet performance for upper-mainstream notebooks and portable storage devices. The two announced 750GB and 1,000GB 2.5” drives won’t fit into most notebook designs due to their 12.5mm height, but they should still raise the bar for compact, high-capacity storage...

The Western Digital Scorpio isnt the fastest drive on the market by any means, but itll complement a high-end, or even mid-range notebook nicely. £149 is a pretty competitive price for such a small device, and makes it an enticing option for noteboo...
