Pros: I'm using one of these along with it's younger brother, the 80 gig version. Surprisingly quiet for their speed, and heat hasn't been any problem at all. Fast read/write times as well; the only thing that might choke your load times (CPU and RAM excluded) is your CD/DVD drive for game media. These are very impressive pieces of hardware. Seagate is also well-known for their reliabilty, from my personal experiences, at the very least.

Cons: None. Perfect SATA drives for running whatever you might desire. They even come in 200+ gig models, if you really need that much space.

Pros: I am using two of these with a R******l raid controller in a raid 0 array. My average sequential Read speed is 92.4 mb/s and a burst speed of 110mb/s. Systems loads super quick

Cons: Like i said before they can get loud most hard drives do under heavy load

Overall Review: Consdiering the speeds i get my gamble paid off. It was this set up or a 74gb R***** drive. Not only are my speeds better but i have aroudn 150 extra gbs. If you have an onboard raid chip your speeds will be even better than mine

Pros: Just set two of these up in a raid 0 with no problems Look really nice and don't feel cheap

Cons: Loud at times but thats under heavy load

Overall Review: Ive spent about 1500 dollars at Newegg and never once been disappointed. Amazingly quick shipping(Got these drives the day after ordering) and super helpful super friendly customer service.I feel like they truely want to make you a customer for life and for me they have. NEWEGG you rock

Pros: I was glad when I found this a few months ago. I have been using this hd for a while, and I couldn't be happier. everything works as it should, and it really fast. Not really much else to say. works like an hd of its kind should.

Cons: every now and then reads a little slow, but i think that's just my pc acting up.

Pros: Great hard drive. You could spend more money and get less.

Cons: Makes a little more noise than my old IBM Desk Star, but its nothing I can really complain about.

Pros: Very fast access times. Nice HD and from a company that builds good stuff.

Cons: none

Pros: Put this in a build for my wife's boss. Fast and quiet. 5 year warranty and years of experience repairing and building computers is why I use Seagate when ever I can. They have never let me or my customers down. They are the best.

Cons: NONE!

Overall Review: Years of experience with various e-tailers is why I shop at NewEgg for 98% of components used in my business and personally. NewEgg is #1 in Service, Pricing, Selection and Customer Satisfaction. Seagate and NewEgg are #1 in my book.

Comments: I am running two of these in RAID and another for a backup drive. Very fast, super quiet, and the warmest one of them has ever been while testing, is 86F. Installation and set up is a snap. Highly reccomended!
