good results i must say but they compared a WD AAKS (16mb buffer) with a 32mb buffer seagate..but since prices are the same ,4200 for seagate and 3900 for WD ,seagate seems to have more vfm.now the question is only of seagate reliability

Why buy this when 640GB Western Digital costs Rs4200. Western Digital is No 1 in USA and offer On site Warranty.
