Given the use of QLC NAND, one big question mark is sustained performance. 4K random performance is decent, too, for this class of drive, with reads of 27MB/s and writes just over 40MB/s at QD1. That’s over $150 less than WD’s Black P50 Game Drive in 2TB trim.Īnd so it proves in our testing, with the Crucial X8 good for just under 1GB/s for sequential transfers in both directions. In fact, right now, it’s available at Best Buy for $239. It’s built into a really solid-feeling metal case. It’s not the absolute fastest external SSD on Earth. So, sometimes it makes sense to compromise. The My Passport Enterprise hard drive will go on sale on Friday, the same day as the Windows 8 launch, for $119.99.If you want it all, you’re going to have to pay for it. Additionally, setup is fast and easy with the WD Compass utility included with My Passport Enterprise. The capacity and portability allows users to easily carry all their data and settings so they can quickly boot and run their personalized Windows 8 system on any compatible PC in the office, at home or on the go. The company's press release states that the My Passport Enterprise products will have 500 GB of storage space.
Today, hard drive maker Western Digital announced it would launch new portable hard drives that are designed specifically for the Windows To Go setup. The drive can then be plugged in to any PC which will allow its users access to his or her full Windows 8 setup while on the go. First revealed over a year ago, Windows To Go will allow people to copy their entire Windows 8 installation onto a USB drive.
Windows To Go is one of the more interesting features found in the enterprise version of Windows 8.
