They don't go higher than like 5200-5400, they are GREEN drives because they only run that fast when you are doing lots of IO, otherwise they spin down/stop/shut off when idle.

This drive features technology that blocks anything downloaded via BitTorrent.
Of course it would work. Why wouldn't it? It'll be slow(er) if you use it as a boot drive of course.
