Seagate ST3200822A-RK 200 GB ATA Internal Hard Drive Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Purchased product for $139 in Nov 2004. Works well, and relatively silent. Use it as an external hard drive (USB enclosure). No Problems with product. Seagate rebate was a different issue altogether...

Rebate check arrived on 3/10/2005 (with an expiry date that I realized afterwards was 3/7/2005). I deposited check only to have it bounce because of the stale date (cost me $12 - which, of course, Seagate wont reimburse). Seagate has promised to mail me another check...Its April 30, 2005 today, and I was told I should get it in 5 weeks. 8 months to get $50...no wonder we all hate mail-in rebates.

Western Digital 300 GB VelociRaptor SATA 10,000 RPM 16 MB Cache Desktop Hard Drive WD3000GLFSRTL - Retail Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you're familiar with the previous Raptor drives, you have an idea of the amazing performance delivered by WD's enterprise drives.

One word of caution though: The models ending in GLFS, such as this one, have the SATA connector in a nonstandard location. That makes this unsuitable for RAID arrays, Mac Pros, Dells with fixed-position ribbon connectors, etc. Look for the model ending in HLFS for a model with slightly inferior cooling, but with standard backplane-friendly cable positioning.
