WanTeD said:DiamonMax 10 it is then.. the smaller one sizewise is 250 GB though hehe..
Edit: No I found a 200GB one.. I hope there's a 160Gb one or even a 120Gb.. I don't need that much space..

Noticably absent from this simple diagram is the WD360GD - It's an overpriced dud. That is list, as you requested, considering ONLY performance. Anybody who believes that higher spindle speed has a linear correlation with higher desktop performance needs to compare a Seagate Cheetah X15 to a Hitachi 7K250 - The Hitachi drive, despite having half the spindle speed, will school a drive so ancient as the Cheetah X15, despite it looking better on paper.
In 7200RPM, 16MB Maxtor is King of the Hill, although there are some interesting (yet) unproven challengers from Samsung and Hitachi with 125GB platter densities that bring some awfully strong paper stats to the table. We shall see if Maxtor will retain there title.
DougLite said:Actually, the 1st Gen Raptor (WD360GD, the one that is available for $120) is nothing special. This SR performance comparison shows WD360GD going down in defeat to the MaxLineIII in every Desktop DriveMark except Office, and never being more than 10% ahead of the 7K250. Not to mention that if has roughly 1/6 the capacity of an equally priced 7200 drive and is significantly louder. WD360GD=waste of money.
