Samsung Spinpoint F1 HD103UJ (1 TB)
The HD103UJ is the top model of Samsung's new Spinpoint F1 family. While all are based on the same data density (350 GB per platter), rotation speed (7200 RPM) and interface (SATA/300), only the 1000 GB and 750 GB models have the full 32 MB of cache memory.
Samsung specifies an 8.9 ms seek time, which results in an effective average access time (including rotational latency) of 14.2 ms. Compared to Seagate (12.7 ms) and Hitachi (13.8 ms), this is clearly slower, but the result is still better than the 15.0/15.1 ms access time of the Western Digital Caviar GP.

Does anyone know what the differences (if any) are between the HD103UJ & HE103UJ models?
HE=enterprise-class, raid certified. The only difference between HE and HD (in the specs) is a "rotational vibration sensor". Check them out on samsung.com.
Is a rotational vibration sensor worth the extra money?
HE = Enterprise Class = 7 year warranty
HD = Desktop Class = 3 year warranty
