Barracuda 7200.10 750GB

Decato | 04 May 2006 - This is the first review on Seagate’s latest, greatest and biggest hard drive I can find on the web. The monsterous 750GB Perpendicular Barracuda comes with 16MB cache, SATA 3Gbp .. but also comes with a hefty price tag.. around USD500. Cost per GB is considered cheap but total cost is still steep for most people. Big Bruin runs the review on it, it’s not really in depth but it’s a good read none the less. Click here for the review, here’s a snipplet:

Seagate really does have the Steve Austin of hard drives on their hands with the Barracuda 7200.10, as it really is better, stronger, faster. Better in terms of the lower noise, and lower heat production provided in part by the implementation of perpendicular recording technology. Stronger thanks to greater shock tolerance and reliability also provided by perpendicular recording technology. And faster as proven by testing. Native Command Queueing, a 3 Gbps SATA interface, 16MB of cache memory, and yes, perpendicular recording technology all chip on that.
