bishop245 Posted November 4, 2002 Posted November 4, 2002 what do you think about the new maxtor 250gig 5400rpm drive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted November 4, 2002 Posted November 4, 2002 More space the better But, I would never buy a 5400 rpm drive <_> I'll take a 7200 or higher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mongoose Posted November 4, 2002 Posted November 4, 2002 250gb? wow, that will make that terabyte system alot easier to get to! Is their a 7200rpm model? 5400 is crap IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco Posted November 4, 2002 Posted November 4, 2002 If the 7200 rpm drives aren't out yet, give them a month or two and we will see them You know, they do have 7200rpm 200GB drives for $329 That isn't bad at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted November 4, 2002 Posted November 4, 2002 FYI I think Maxtor already has a 7200rpm model. http://www.maxtor.com/en/products/ata/ente...cifications.htm Notice "Maximum capacity 250GB" and also "7200 RPM" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VolcomPimp Posted November 12, 2002 Posted November 12, 2002 Id take the drive if it was cheap... if ya think about it, it could be usefull if it was soley for storing movies and stuff you dont use often... I'd go w/ somethin a bit faster for my OS partition or for stuff I run a lot.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NyCUnDaGroUnD Posted November 12, 2002 Posted November 12, 2002 Id rather choose seagate or WD hard drives instead. Maxtor is sinking low. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
