This review is from: Seagate BarraCuda 7200.10 ST380815AS 80GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Pros:
Drive is quiet and fast - noticably faster than drive replaced.
Cons:
None
Overall Review:
Swapped this drive for a 5400 RPM factory unit in a Gateway laptop and imaged the data to the new drive. The laptop noticably performed much faster, is always the case when you install a 7200 RPM drive in a laptop. The downside is *allegedly* more power consumption and lower battery time, but I am of the opinion that the faster drive makes up for it!
