1TB Hard Disk Drives Tested

Looking to put a TByte hard drive in your system? X-bit Labs tested 6 TByte HDDs from Hitachi, Samsung, Seagate, and Western Digital. The drives tested were:

  • Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000
  • Hitachi Ultrastar A7K1000
  • Samsung SpinPoint F1
  • Seagate Barracuda 7100.11
  • Seagate Barracuda ES.2
  • Western Digital Caviar GP

"So, these are the highs and lows of the tested drives but the most important point about them is the price factor. The price of a 1-terabyte drive has lowered by a half since the moment they hit the market - all thanks to the competition. With four manufacturers elbowing each other aside in this market sector, we are up to more price cuts!" [X-bit labs | 1TB Hard Disk Drives Roundup]

Any of the above-mentioned HDDs will do, especially if you just need one for honest-to-goodness large capacity storage.
