This drive's at an excellent price for its silent and cool operation, perfect for servers, and no one is going to notice any drop in speed vs, let's say, a WD with 16MB.

So if you want cheaper wait 3 years and then buy one.
 
I expect to see SATA drives in more demand soon, Time Warner appears to be FINALLY starting to rollout a DVR patch enabling the eSata port on the back for more storage than the shipped 160 GB (90 hrs SD, 20 hrs HD).

I thought it was Hitachi and almost said this deal was on fire, too. Seagate is good, but I think the Hitachi T7K250 is a better all around drive. Seagate has 5 years of warranty compared to 3 for Hitachi, though, so they're both great drives. All I know about the Samsung drive is that it doesn't perform like the Hitachi but it is even more silent.

well.. i had hitachi(ibm) too but they were very loud and slow. they might have been improved but i wouldnt get hitachi over samsung. I agree that seagate is good though.

seagate > samsung > western digital > maxtor > hitachi (just my personal preferrence)
