The Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 hard drives are both very impressive from a performance and features standpoint, but the 300GB model stands out as a superb value at this range, as not only do you get SATA 3.0 Gb/s and NCQ, but also the large 16MB of onbo...

Seagate knows what they are doing, because they continue to impress. Its too bad I did not have another S-ATA drive on hand, because it would have been a more accurate comparison, but the Barracuda definitely held its own. Despite coming short in mo...
