Roundups and Shootouts

5400/7200 RPM Harddisk Roundup - Hardware Analysis
"If youre however looking for a harddisk that offers an impressive combination of performance and low noise then look no further than Seagates ST380021A Barracuda IV, it really is an engineering marvel that combines the best of both worlds. No match for the IBM or Western Digital but a fair trade-off between performance and noise level."

Mid-class HDD Roundup - Tom's Hardware
"...the real winner in terms of price/performance ratio is Samsung. The SP1604N offers a whopping 160 GB and 7,200 rpm while costing mo more than the 120 GB drives from the competition. Considering that, it's quite tempting."

"Anyone thinking of buying an ATA/133 drive with a 2 Meg buffer should definitely reconsider. The Western Digital Special Edition drives deliverer-amazing performance especially in a raid configuration. I am happy with the drives fast access times and great transfer speeds. The drive doesnt make that much noise witch can help keep overall system noise down."

"The Western Digital WD800JB is an excellent piece of hardware to own. The 8MB cache is the real reason to get this drive, and is already used by many techies because of its sheer speed."
