No one thinks of their hard drive until it crashes or it locks up. No one seriously considers performance when purchasing a hard drive, mis-focusing instead on the “deal-of-the-week”. Well, think again! Your hard drive is absolutely the most important part of you system, and you ought to be more concerned about it than you are about the CPU!
After all, if your CPU dies, you buy another one – your master OS disc drive dies and you have likely lost a ton of important data, some of which wasn’t backed up, and you are faced with literally a full days worth of effort to reload your software and reconfigure your system.
A failed disk drive easily can cost you your weekend, and drive your aggravation level through the roof!
We were therefore very interested when we got a chance to review the latest 120Gig drive from Seagate – the Barracuda ATA V (120G) Model ST3120023A.
