imtim83 0 Posted April 4, 2001 hi everyone i have the maxtor 45 gig 7200 rpm , ATA 100 , and < 8.7 ms seek time. the model number is 54610H6. it has three 15 gig platters. Do yall think this was a good Hard drive brought here at U.S for $159.99 ? Or should i get the 60 gig maxtor three 20 gig platter instead or ibm 60 gxp series HD or even WD ? i know its only like gives me in HdTach without advanced size test check cause it freezes up on me when i check it dont ask me why so i cant check it off. it gives me max , 32000 kps about and average 28000 kps about and mininum 19000 kps about i mean its ok but what do yall think ? and access time about 12.9 to 13 ms i turned off that thing AMSET that makes the HD seek time slower. btw is that 40 gig the two 20 gig platter faster than the three 15 gig platter 45 gig ? like is it noticeable? etc btw how do you know if a Hard drive is 20% faster or more or not and what does the line end? like what if the HD is 21 % faster or 22 % faster will you see a difference please reply if you want thanks Share this post Link to post
