    Fast H.D.D?

    Looking towards a second drive to install personal files and other important data/programs on away from the main OS and browser drive which is a 150GB Raptor.

    I know the Samsung F1 drives are supposidly fast but I don't think I really need as much as 750GB for this drive, so I was looking at THIS ONE. 500GB may also be a little generous but the 32MB cache caught my eye. IS IT ANY GOOD???

    Bit noisy imo, cant beat WD AAKS for noise or Samsung F1 for that bit of added speed

    The Samsung F1 drives are apparently leader for quietness and speed at the moment.
