Hard Drive Recommendation--Seagate Barracuda 80 GB

1999–2004August 5, 2002Macs Only!Peripherals
This drive has received recommendations on lists that we belong to because it is large, fast (7200 RPM) and nearly silent. We bought one to upgrade our Cube's original 5400 RPM 20 GB Maxtor. We haven't put it through its full paces yet but it definitely lives up to its reputation for silence. OWC has them for $118.75 and ClubMac has them for $99.99 so they are inexpensive as well.
