Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Very fast. I bought two of these and put them in Raid 0

Cons: Makes a little more noise than a slower speed 7,200RPM drive.

Other Thoughts: It's extra noise is worth it. Whenever I can hear it, it just reminds me of how much faster it is than other HDs. The sound that it makes even sounds fast if that makes any sense.

I was on the fence about picking up a 160GB solid state drive instead of 2 of these. I'm glad I didn't because I am very satisfied with them and they give more space for the price. I decided to wait until solid state is a little more established and affordable.

FAST AS A CHEETAH YET QUIET AS A KITTEN

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: This thing annihilates my old raptors. Especially in the noise department. Waaaaaaay way more quiet than the old 10k raptors.

Cons: Won't crawl out of my tower and get beer out of the fridge when I ask it to.

"Get me a beer!" - Nothing happens.

Other Thoughts: Speed. Lightning in a bottle. Newegg got it here faster than I expected. Packing was great. Tight box/eggs/double bubble etc.
