Re: Maxtor SATA II 7200RPM 16MB buffer HDD

SATA 2. Already.

My other languages are bad but are you sure. I have looked at this drive but I though it was SATA 1. Actually this drive is on my new computer wish list after seeing it on TomsHardware Guide site.

Is it this one here?

EDIT
You are quite right Kenshin. I just checked the Maxtor website.

Wow thats some link.

Looks like TomsHardware Guide got it wrong.

Re: Maxtor SATA II 7200RPM 16MB buffer HDD

It was often discussed at StorageReview.com discussion boards. I've been waiting for S-ATA II drives since about 2001-2002.

I can't remember all but WD and Hitachi have also started supporting SATA II features in some of their latest drives and firmware. However, Maxtor 300GB is a lot more cost-effective than WD 74GB Raptor for those who want more space as well as performance.

A 7200 rpm drive can't compete with a 10k rpm drive in access time though.
