HITACHI Deskstar 7K1000.C 1TB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons: Performance is not quite as advertised.

Pros: Great price for 1TB drive.
Comment:
If you are looking for a budget 1tb hdd, this is a good option. Performance-wise, there isn't much to complain about -- you get what you pay for. Recommended for sure.

Cons: Not for silent computers

Pros: FastPrice for amount of space
Comment:
I know for sure revision B had acoustic management, being able to bring down the noise level significantly without much performance loss. However, revision C does not support acoustic management, and can get a little loud.

Cons: -none

Pros: -1TB,32MB buffer,7200rpm is standard.-Works Great. Run not fast, not slow, yet reasonably quiet.-Price. Got it in a good deal.
Comment:
use this on an usb 2.0 external enclosure for video storage. when i transfer over 30 gb data it is limited to the usb 2.0 speed around 30-35 mb/sec. what surprise me is when i transfer one single file of 1 gb the brust speed is like 130mb per then slow down to around 80-90 mb/sec. very impressive an happy with the performance.

If you get this drive, activate acoustic management to bring the sound down. Setting of 128 is quietest, and doesn't appear to affect performance significantly.120mb/s average read260 mb/s burst12ms seek time

Hitachi's have had a bad rap, but they've been working fine for me. both 1TB and 2TB versions work without a hitch. The 1TB is super quiet and runs cool. That's all.

Excellent hard drive
Comment:
This is third generation of their hard drives. It has 2 platters design and is very cold, quiet and power efficient. Drive temp in my computer is 28-29 C. This drive has 32 MB buffer and not 16 MB as it says in description - here is the right description of this drive - Deskstar 7K1000.C HDS721010CLA332 (0F10383) 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb 3.5

Cons:none so far

Pros:pricecapacity
Comment:
Picked up two of these on sale. Deployed one in an external enclosure for pumping up my PVR capacity. So far no problems and noise is not bad and only noticable when the room is completely quiet even when its being written too by the PVR.Will have to wait and see if the drive can hadnle the I/O from the PVR. I have had good luck with Hitachi drives
