They all look fast to me.

The Hitachi is holding its own despite being the first to market.

Took Seagate's second model to get the extra speed.

you don't want the seagate. Trust me.


There are issues to be resolved, and unless they are publically disclosed, you DO NOT WANT A SEAGATE SATA DRIVE.

Inform us about the Seagate issues, please.

The early big Seagates had issues with the built in SATA controllers in the Mac Pro. But the 7200.11 shows no issues. Also, all of the drives perform better when a dedicated controller is used instead of the built in SATA controller.
