are they the fastest 7200 rpm hdds out there? im looking at the 320gb w/ sataII and 16mb cache, is that the best choice for that price range considering speed/noise/reliability?

i checked anands reviews and they didnt have the 320gb there, the 500gb and the 750gb only i believe.
newegg reviews are useless.
your post contributed close to nothing, dont tell me to do "research". if you told that to everyone that posted here there would be no forums except off topic and hot deals.

Wow guys instead of being dicks why dont we actually help thi sguy. And for you rquestion im not sure that the 320gb has been reviewed however its most likely the fastest 7200rpm drive available.
Here's one... haven't read it myself yet.

thanks fellas, i appreciate the help and am on my way to buying the 320gb.
it seems, however, that the diamond members of this board are too good to answer technical questions and would rather troll threads made by members with less posts than themselves.

I agree...
Now I bought the 320GB version and it is being used in a file Server. I have found that it performs VERY well compared to some of my 15K SCSI drives (not as fast of course but it's decent enough for multi tasking environments).
Which oddly enough goes against the results found in that review.

This is a wonderful site for hard drive reviews, I was going to post it. I'm glad someone else did.
JEDIYoda,
If you are not gonna contribute anything at all and just make sarcastic remarks then dont post. He probably came to Anandteh on the basis that he could get accurate information from people that own the drive not just reviews. Please stop posting if your not going to help.

JEDIYoda,
I have to agree with EffeX, if you can't offer a helpfull comment, your condescending drivel of a response to up your thread count doesn't help any of us who really want experienced commentary about our question.
As much as anybody, I appreciate a discourse from those who have first hand experience. I also know how to do my own research like many others here, and don't need someone like you to remind me, thank you.

I read on storagereview that some people who bought the 320gb version say that the hard drive is the loudest hard drive they have owned.
Is yours loud Zerocool?
Is yours loud Zerocool?
i have both a 7200.8 and a 7200.10 in an antec slk-3000b with the tricool fan in the front set on low
i am copying large files to the drive from my main drive right now and it is not very loud and is running at 37 degrees. however, when i was copy files from within the main drive and going to the other one it was rather loud, although it has sinced stopped since the transfer stopped so i dont believe its the 7200.10. all around a good drive so far and its pretty fast too.

There was some speculation that the 7200.10 320GB would be nice and quiet, two platters and claims from seagate that they are the quietest line of drives they've made (or something like that).
Guess i'm going samsung spinpoints again.

I believe the platter density is the same, just less platters on the 320GB model, so the performance should be very similar to the higher drives.
FWIW I have the following drives in my case (Sonata 1 with one 120mm exhaust fan on low only) and I can barely hear them.
WD Raptor 36.7g first gen (loudest)
Seagate 7200.8 160g PATA
Seagate 7200.9 250g SATA
I can barely hear either of the Seagates.
