Desktop Computer Review: Seagate Barracuda ATA IV - Hard drive - 40 GB - internal - 3.5" - ATA-100 - 7200 rpm

I needed a little extra storage on my old, crappy computer so I got this and piggybacked it onto my 20 gig HD.60 gigs is enough for filing and video/photo storage, and it was reasonably cheap.I'd recommend it if your computer's so old you can't use a SATA II HD but still need a wee bit more storage.

Seagate offers you the fastest PC hard drive ever, the Barracuda ATA IV. The kicker: a revolutionary Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) motor makes the super-fast drive the world's only virtually silent hard drive. Barracuda ATA IV is the only desktop disk drive shipping exclusively with FDB motors - a technology that will also enable engineers to fit more data on a disk surface and increase hard drive spin speeds far beyond what traditional motors allow.Using the most advanced data density technology in the industry, Barracuda ATA IV is the first 7,200-rpm disk drive to achieve 80 GB giving Seagate a significant advantage in the high-performance PC storage market. The drive's record-breaking internal transfer rate is fast enough to copy an hour of MP3 music in one second. Barracuda ATA IV is fast enough to stream eight movies simultaneously, in DVD quality, without dropping a frame.
