Re: Oh Barracuda
That could be. I just remember the one a year or two ago.
I went to Seagates site and it doesnt seem to be on the list:

Re: Oh Barracuda
Going to make my decision tom nite because im going to win7 before shogun TW.thinking about taking the risk.
I assume its the circuit board on the bottom of the drive that makes it faster and it seem only seagate(not my ideal brand) has only got this technology?
should i take the risk because this is claimed at 6G speeds?.help me decide guys.

Re: Oh Barracuda
All hard drives have that circuit board, its the controller. There are other 2TB drives out there.
I usually dont give advice on hard drives as it usually doesnt matter. The thing is that the drive you are looking at is 5900RPM. The "gaming" standard is 7200.
If it was me, I would wait. I wouldnt buy a lower RPM drive, especially sinc Seagate makes the exact same model in a 7200.
