Hello people!
I am about to buy a 250GB hdd and I am a little bit confused. Many models on the market I guess...
Here is what I found from the e-store I buy in Greece (www.e-shop.gr) :
- SEAGATE BARRACUDA ST3250824AS 250GB 7200RPM SATA2 NCQ
7200.9, SATA 2, NCQ, 8MB CACHE, 5 years warranty 89.00 €
- SEAGATE BARRACUDA ST3250620AS 250GB 7200RPM 16MB SATA2
7200RPM, 16MB BUFFER, 8.5MS, 5 years warranty 90.27 €
- MAXTOR 6V250F0 HDD 250GB - 16MB - SATA2 BULK
7200RPM, SATA2, 16MB CACHE, <9MS, 3 years warranty 90.30 €
- MAXTOR 7V250F0 HDD 250GB - 16MB - SATA2 BULK
250GB, 7200rpm, 16MB BUFFER, SATA2, 5 years warranty 94.70 €
- WESTERN DIGITAL 250GB 16MB WD2500KS 7200RPM SATA2
7200rpm, 16MB CACHE, 3 years warranty 87.50 €
All of these drives are around the same pricepoint. I want to use the drive as a gaming drive + storage (50%-50%).
What interests me is 1) speed 2) reliability
Thanks in advance!
