Barracuda 7200.10 750GB SATA Hard DriveStrengths: Capacity Speed Weakness: None Overall speed versus capacity is excellent. Very quiet. Some heat but no more than usual with Seagates. I'm running 16 of these in a home media server in RAID 5. Serves up three rooms with HD video with no problem. Other review mentions heat/noise issues. No problems here. Some variations from drive to drive with noise but nothing out of the ordinary. Housed in a Chenbro with ThermalTakes and...

Failed after one monthStrengths: Worked great, for a month. Weakness: Failed quicky, under low use. About one month of use in a well ventilated (three fans) MythTV box that I was setting up, not even in active use for recording yet . Date code of 06446. The drive started with read errors after about 30 days, and when I rebooted it would not POST and allow the BIOS to see it. It does the click-whirr every 8 seconds or so, and nothing. I let it sit off 24 hours, then moved it to another box to...

Speed demon hard drives!Strengths: Capacity & speed Weakness: Price/GB is higher than smaller drives. Just built a new system with lots of horsepower for handling video applications and 3D software in a Windows Vista 64-bit environment. I have 2 of these 750 GB drives in this system. The hard drives can provide sustained read/write speeds of 75/69 MB/sec using Storm test (Canopus.com). This easily surpasses anything I would currently need for capturing digital video. The sweet part is moving or...

Warm, but fast and quietStrengths: 750GB in a single internal drive. Weakness: Warm. This drive does run relatively hot, but no more so than a typical 10,000 RPM Sata. It's a 750GB Drive - cooling should be a consideration before buying such an expensive and dense HD. Grab a coolmax aluminum enclosure, they're about $25 and will significantly reduce the drive temperature.

consumes too much powerStrengths: slightly faster than competition Weakness: High power consumption, heat, noise. I got burns on my hands after touching this thing which was running in idle mode 99% of the time in an Adaptec ASC-300 aluminum enclosure. The idle power consumption by specs is significantly higher than other drives. I regret that I overlooked this aspect of this drive. I would suggest running this drive using an active cooler with fans, which is not an option for me because of the noise. The...

Simply The Best!Strengths: SATA connection, with up to 3Mpbs data transfer rates; very generous 5-Year Warranty; A massive 16MB of Cache --the most available -- for great stability; big 750GB storage capacity running 7200RPM. Weakness: Might be a bit tricky when seting up the RAID with other SATA Hard Disks, but not too difficult you carefully read the instructions before setup. Other than that, no other probelms found. One might ask, "What would you need a hard drive with 750GB of storage for?" Well I remember when someone asked me that similar question about 10 or 12 years ago, except that it was for a 4GB hard drive instead, and that was a pretty large size at it's time, but that was when the Internet was starting to emerge in the common household to mostly send & receive E-mails for dial-up WWW, and typing...

Great Hard driveStrengths: large volume Weakness: none yet - other than price Bought for home theater PC (htpc). Large volume is excellant for storing DIVX movies and MP3's. Have not noticed drive too hot as per (few) other reviews. Very fast. Very quiet.

Plenty of Space....Noise Issues DisappointingStrengths: High capacity hard drive, fast operation. Weakness: Pretty loud when compared to other hard drives I have. I bought this hard drive to upgrade the hard drive in my TiVo Series 3. It certainly works, providing 3x the capacity of the standard TiVo Series 3 hard drive, but it's LOUD. This makes a big difference when you're watching TV, as that incessant hard drive noise can detract from the TV experience (unless you turn up the volume really high). I was disappointed with the noise. If you're using it in...

oem 1tb barracudaStrengths: huge capacity huge cache short non-sequential seek times operating temperature Weakness: needs underlighting and a lift kit to go with the rims and spoiler Great drive. It follows the SATA II standard so it works with new computers well, but you can jumper it so you can use it with SATA ports. Fast, reliable, and works great in an array.

Barracuda 7200.10 750GB SATA Hard Drive
Strengths: FAST. Very good maximum throughput (best measured speed at 73MB/sec)
Weakness: Price is more than 25¢/GB. None other noticed so far.
I use this drive for large (75MB-300MB) Photoshop picture files. Being able to load, save, and move these files around quickly is very important to me, and this drive does that very well. I have been running this drive for a week. So far it is not noticeably louder or hotter than any of the other drives (WD250, MAX300, HIT160) that I am running in my machine. It is installed with 3 other drives...
