I read a darn good review of 250 GB internal hard drives on
http://www.storagereview.com/articles/200601/250_1.html
and was not impressed with the over-all result for any of the five disks (Hitachi DeskStar T7K250, Maxtor DiamondMax 10, Samsung SpinPoint, Seagate Barracuda 7200.9, and WD Caviar WD2500KS).
I am interested in 250 GB, and I wondered if there are any other models of the five brands above that perform better, but I also wondered if there are any reviews out there of other brands, some maybe not as famous, that have yielded better results.
Looking forward to comments.
