Great HDD and extremely fast
This drive provides huge storage at very fast speeds. It scores between some SSD drives for speed (albeit older/slower ones) but at the price is a real bargain. I bought one of these and am seriously considering adding another - might setup Raid - at this price it's hardly beatable.
Take a look at these benchmarks;
http://www.harddrivebenchmark.net/high_end_drives.html
where this drive is in the Top100 at the higher end of conventional disks beating some (albeit outdated) SSD drives !!
STRENGTHS:
huge capacity
highest of speeds
WEAKNESSES:
the make (Samsung) not usually associated with great HDD's
shipped without any cables etc. (bulk item not retail box) but everyone has an extra SATA cable flying around usually.
BEST USES:
In highend PC's.
RECOMMENDED ITEMS:
Mushkin 60GB SSD - best value for money - and SUPERFast.
