Conclusions
Seagate's 750MB desktop hard
drive offers not only ample space for storage-hungry systems, but also
manages to impress in terms of overall performance as well. As far as
7200rpm drives go, the results here are about as good as it gets on a single
drive configuration. Pair a couple or more on a RAID array, and you
can achieve even greater performance. This drive also runs quite
silent and with this much storage space, it is suitable for an HTPC build
where plenty of storage will be needed. The only issue I really had
with it was its rather poor read performance with smaller files on the
actual read tests. However, all other tests were actually above what I
expected. With that said, this drive is recommend.
