Desktop Computer Review: Hitachi Deskstar P7K500 - Hard drive - 500 GB - internal - 3.5" - SATA-300 - 7200 rpm

I bought this drive (actually 3 of them) because I needed more storage capacity on my computer and wasn't happy with the performance of a lot of external hard drives I'd bought lately. It was very easy to install in my Mac desktop and in 15 minutes, I had more than doubled my storage for a fraction of what I'd spent on external drives. These drives are quiet and quick. I'm very happy with my purchase.
