Your hard disk drive is the only (data handling) peripheral in your PC that still uses mechanical parts. Hard drives are not even coming close to keeping up with the performance improvements that the industry is seeing in processors, video cards, buses, mother boards and memory.

Don't get us wrong, hard disks are improving significantly - they just continue to be the performance rate limiting peripheral inside your computer.
