Default What does WD hard drive have, that Seagate Hard Drives dont?

I see the price diff and I wonder...

Besides the Velociraptor, they have the same cache, same rpm.

What does Cache do on a HDD?

I guess RPM allows it to read faster...

so what makes them so much better to justify that price increase?
