    Just bought my 3rd 750G Spinpoint, and they all worked fine right away. I used to buy only Seagates, but the recent reviews looked horrible on the models I wanted; since I needed the drives quickly, I went with the Samsungs which got very good reviews in several places.

    No jumpers, SATA 2 mode only. Not a problem with newer machines. Supposed to auto negotiate to SATA 1 but some POS chipsets like VIA has issues with it. Had to use the Promise controller on my MB.

    This is the fastest 1TB hard drive on the market for most applications. Great price.
