Well, I received one of these about a week ago and it is living up to its formidable reputation. A comprehensive review can be found at http://tinyurl.com/4fkzz5

This drive benchmarks really well in all departments and at this price is a steal. One of the fastest SATA2 drives around and trounces the Raptor drives.

Super Quiet and VERY Fast Drive.
review by: Allan Forsythrating:

I recieved one of these on Friday having ordered it on Thursday night (top notch service yet again ebuyer!) along with a usb2/esata enclosure.

My main use of this drive is as portable backup stoage of audio data which I use for audio production work. Due to the nature of this work I need my drives to be fast the faster the better.

From the two nights I've spent with this drive I can easily say I am VERY happy with it. The drive is SILENT. Absolutely quieter than a mouse. I can hold it to my ear (in the enclosure) and still stuggle to hear it spinning or even seeking!!

Even over usb2 from an external enclosure, the transfers to and from the drive and seek times are noticeably fast.

I am so impressed with this drive I'm contemplating swapping my seagate 500GB boot drives in both my machines for the 500's in the spinpoint F1 range.

I recommend you all do the same.

Time will tell if the 600k hours mtbf is accurate.

I bought to replaced my old Seagate 7200.10 750GB and 500GB and already installed this new drive - seem it good buy from Ebuyer (go and get one before too late) - it run so fast also cooler and quieter also when I updated Vista SP1 via update it took 47 mins as Seagate was 2 hrs 5 mins - i would say it good buy after all!!

Well pleased with performance.

This drive is just as quick transferring files as my Raptor 150Gb. but I will still use the Raptor for the C: drive because of the quicker access times and well,,, because it cost so much per MByte.



The drive is also very quiet, as everyone is confirming.



I have 2 of these now and split them 60/40 to create a Raid0/Raid1 setup and I'm well happy. Copying/Editing large video files is fast and the Backup speeds using a partition manager are amazing.



100 quid for 1TB is boggling considering my first hard disk was 80MByte.

Wow, what a bargain
review by: Anonymous rating:

I'm currently using one F1 in a Synology 207+ NAS.



The temp' never gets higher than 36 degrees, and the fan is far louder than this drive even when seeking.



I'm about to add a second drive to the NAS device, and also about to put one of these in my SkyHD system.



This is a very slick, fast, quiet, and cool drive!
