so which is the 'better' drive, the spinpoint or this one?

thanks.

This is more for a quiet(er)/slow(er) situation.

Ex: DVRs, storage, homeservers, etc.

3yr warranty, at your door for $125, I've seen better deals, i've seen worse.

Just go for it, that way i'm not the only sucker. I just bought one about an hr ago.

Also, ignore "brand" debates. Model #'s matter more than brands. Sometimes you get a good one, sometimes you don't. It's part of the game.

1TB.. I wonder how long it will take to fill this up.

might not be as fast as others, but still a superb storage solution

Same $/GB as the 1.5TB drive from Newegg.... Why not go to a higher capacity for the same cost / GB? Just dropped one of the new 1.5TB drives into my DVR. 200 hours of HD storage...

#5, #2: why do you think that this drive is slower? From what I've read, this is the fastest 1TB drive on the market, due to its high data density.

#7, why don't you copy and paste what you've read elsewhere and pass it off as your own like you normally do? *smirk*

#8: please point out where I have ever done this.

also, I'm curious as to why you haven't accused me of working for Samsung yet. According to your posts, I've already worked for Hitachi, Sandisk, and Seagate. Whenever I recommend a product a couple times, you're usually quick on the draw to say that I'm working there. So, where's the accusation? I feel like I'm on a role here, let's see if I can get to work at all the major storage companies.

for anyone who hasn't been around here for the last few months:
