The 120 GB Samsung ATA 133 Hard drive is notable because it provides much better
performance than the Maxtor Diamondmax of the same capacity.
This is also a cool running hard drive, only reaching 39 degrees, even after
hours of testing. Cool temperatures should generally equate to better reliability.
The drive is just as quiet as its SATA sibling, which makes this drive quite
an attractive package, combining reasonably strong performance with low noise
and heat output. Price per Gigabyte is 51p, which is not as good as some of
the larger drives on test, but with a purchase price of £56.98, this drive
is definitely the best budget buy.
