7200.12 is a good drive (it's just good enough).

The Blacks seem to outperform the .12's though sometimes they cost a bit more.

No idea about the Hitachis.



People would most likely recommend the Caviar Black.

Most folks here are recommending the Samsung SpinPoint F3
same as amnotanoobie about the Hitachi
the other mentioned drives are fine
