Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 - Hard drive - 320 GB - internal - 3.5" - SATA-300 - 7200 rpm - buffer: 16 MB

I bought this 2 back up important data on my iMac. The drive gave some warning signs before it completely broke down, so I thankfully was able 2 retrieve the data. However, I am very disappointed that it failed so quickly.

I've recently built a new gaming PC so i thought i'd keep my old one just 4 downloading .. it had an IDE WesternDigital hard drive ..

As i keep it downloading .. that old hard drive is so not reliable & sometimes when the download speed goes very high .. files become corrupt !! ... so i figured i'd change that old hard drive with this new one ...

Believe me ... i felt like i was fooling my self with the old hard drive ..... this hard drive runs silent, a little hot but that is not a problem with me.

I've been using it at 3Gb/s 4 two months downloading 24/7 non stop ... never a corrupted file even in high download rates ... the computer became very stable & alot more faster.

I think this hard drive is really underpriced !! .....

"Should i buy it or keep looking" ? .... I'd say buy it without even a second thought !! .....

Its a good hard drive, fast, no noticable vibration or sound (but maybe thats because of my case fans). But you'll have 2 get a sata cable if you dont have one, it doesnt come with anything (my motherboard came with about 5 sata cables). In conclusion, I recommend it.

Almost as fast as the Western Digital Raptor X Drives. Fast & quiet & carries the 5 year Seagate warranty! Can't be beat 4 value & performance.

I bought this hard drive not too long ago, & it is blazing fast! The SATAII interface makes transfers much faster then IDE, & the 16MB cache along with the new perpendicular recording make it even faster!
