The Inquirer.net has an article up about Seagates new 400GB Barracuda 7200.8 hard drive.
According to the company's press release, the drive has Hyper-Threading Technology, which allows multiple applications to send I/O requests at the same time. This boosts performance still more when applications take advantage of Asynchronous I/O.
Seagate claims NCQ also increases drive reliability in heavy workloads by eliminating much of the mechanical wear and tear that a non-NCQ drive must endure to transfer the same amount of data.
