Hi all just about to buy a new harddrive and have settled on the Samsung SP 1614n 160Gb 7200rpm, 8mb Cache IDE 133.
Just wondering what your thoughts were on this drive, main reason for choosing this is price, and performance.
Just read a review of it in PC Authority and it came top in the labtest with Drive Speed of 54,914KB/s and SysMark 2002 score of 257.
Any other suggestions will be considered but has to be IDE i'm afraid no SATA at the mo on my sys, saving the raptor for when i upgrade next year .
Best price i have so far is £81.67inc vat from www.komplett.co.uk
