How is Samsung's rebate?... If this deal was w/o rebate, I would have bought one.
i bought one from ZipZoom last month, its faulty one did n't check before and when i used it after like 20 days and found the issue they refused return...
make sure you tested it thourohly if u buy...
It's still pretty cheap without the rebate, and it's a zipzoomfly rebate, not necessarily a Samsung one. From my experience, Zipzoomfly has been pretty good for their word.
thx for the info all!
This is an incredible deal! Has anyone else had a bad experience like heda_p? Does anyone have an good experiences to report?
I own this drive and like it a lot. It runs quietly and doesn't seem to generate much heat. Had it for about three months now. My last drive was a Samsung, too.
I have a couple of the drives and like them. ZZF is not as customer friendly as Newegg. I seldom buy anything from them any longer.
Have you all gone mad? You can get the 2 platter Seagate 7200.12 1TB for under $90, and it's well worth the price difference.
If you don't need performance and/or are pinching pennies, I would recommend the Hitachi over Samsung. For speed, reliability, and power/heat (btw 16MB vs. 32MB cache is negligible). I've had failures with Samsung and great luck with Hitachi.
This is totally from my experience (as a professional PC tech), but Hitachi drives = CRAP. I see them fail more then any other vendor (Maxtor would be second to that). Sadly, I have dealt with few Samsung drives (so far the ones I've seen seem good).
But this is like I said, based on my experience. bsg75 sounds like he has been more fortunate then I with Hitachi (I hope his luck keeps up, because you can't give me a Hitachi drive).
The Seagate 7200.12 is probably the best option for a performance 1TB HDD. The Hitachi is currently the best option for cheap 1TB HDD. Samsung? OK drives, but falls in the middle so that's fine if you want a compromise.
As soon as Seagate has some competition with others' next generation drives, their price on 7200.12 will probably fall by $15 or so. Until then if running the OS off it, probably worth the extra money but not so much for bulk storage (that's what the green drives are good for).
I've had solid luck with Seagate. I once had a half dozen boxes in standing water for 1 week due to hurricane flooding...the Seagate's *actually* fired back up - the other brands wouldn't. For what that's worth...
