A lot of storage, together with good performance make this a tempting drive. But it isnt the best value for money If you keep a lot of media on your PC, the Barracuda 7200.9, which offers 465GB of storage after Windows formatting, is a seriously temp...

As with all of the largest hard disks, the 500GB 7200.9s biggest downside is its price. At 51p per GB, this drive is more costly than Hitachis equally massive Deskstar 7K500, and you could pick up three Deskstar T7K250s for the same money and have 50...

Weighing in at a cool 500GB (465GB formatted capacity), Seagates ninth generation Barracuda drive is ideal for those of us with huge storage needs who dont have the room in our PC case for multiple disk drives.
  • Massive storage space...
  • Price per gigabyte a little high The Final Word While two 250GB drives may be cheaper, having 500GB in a single drive is very convenient. The 7200.9 is quiet, fast and cool.

This drive isnt twice as fast as old-style SATA predecessors, but its a great performer for the price. The Seagate is fast. And with a cost per gigabyte of just 29p, its very economical too. To the untrained eye, the Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 is no...

At a total capacity of 500 GB per hard drive, the industry should seriously consider to split between high capacity and high performance hard drives, because the latest Seagate drive makes a step backwards in performance. Seagate wants it all these d...

Hard disk drives, one of the oldest forms of storage in the PC, are still being used to this day. Granted they have had a number of changes, they are still using the same principles that were used at their invention, a spinning metal disk inside a vacu...
  • Seagate may have been later to the market with its 300MB/s drives than that of Maxtor, WD or Samsung but Seagate has waited till the right time, when SATA 2.5 has been finalised, and this has proven to be a winning combination as far as we are concern...

We have already reviewed the successful 500GB hard drives Hitachi Deskstar 7K500 and T7K500. Now its high time to review other products of this capacity. These drives use the latest technologies, and prices are becoming more and more attractive. Besid...
  • Maxtor and Seagate did not allow Hitachi GST to enjoy being the only manufacturer that offers a high-capacity series for long (Deskstar 7K500 series). They have crossed the 500 GB line for a single desktop hard drive using newer technologies (platters...
