Even more surprising is the complete lack of competing products. You would think Hitachi, Samsung, WD et al would jump at the chance to sell 500GB 7200rpm drives while Seagate cannot deliver.
Cheers,
agreed. but i know why WD isnt. their 500GB Blue is performing just as well as the 7200rpm HDD's. but as for the others it is a mystery why they havent come out with theirs.
i wonder if WD did make a 7200rpm 500GB it would be even better than the Blue. that would be a pretty incredible drive.
