BitTech Review of the F3
operating system:Windows XPThis is one impressive drive which seems to beat the competion hands down! BitTech reckon its the fastest harddisk they benchmarked so far!
Review here:
http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/storage/2009/10/06/samsung-spinpoint-f3-1tb-review/1
No problems yet
operating system:OtherI received the F3 1TB this morning and i installed the HDD as another storage drive as i am using a Samsung Spinpoint F1 1TB HDD for my operating system.
Later today my F1 HDD decided to start playing up and was obviously faulty (as most of them are) and so i took out the F1 and decided to use the F3 for my operating system (windows 7).
It installed perfectly and is absolutely lightning fast. ive never seen games being installed so quickly and 700mb film shifting in mere seconds.
I reccomend this HDD but steer clear of the F1's
Excellent
operating system:Not ApplicableThis drive is simply amazing. With only 2 500GB platters you will see AVERAGE speeds of 120MB/s and beyond
After installing and formatting I ran a HDTach benchmark. Average read was 121.8MB/s, and burst was 257MB/s.
It is also very quiet and runs fairly cool, again due to only 2 platters. You will not be disappointed.
