amostras de engenharia de discos rígidos para uma avaliação precoce


Explanation:
Acho que neste caso o sentido de "early look" é o de fazer avaliações, testes, etc., numa fase bem primitiva do projeto do produto em questão, avaliar bem cedo um produto nascente.

Particularmente não vejo problemas com "amostras de engenharia"; parece bem usado no contexto de produtos de informática. Confira em: http://www.google.com.br/search?hl=pt-BR&as_q=&as_epq=amostr...

disagree  Daniel Tavares: Sorry again, but by the context it wouldn't be "antigo", but "antecipado".
