I'm looking to get a 300Gig hard drive, currently top of my list is the Barracuda SATA 7200.8 but I'm open to suggestion and advice.

ive got 4 Maxtor DiamondMax Plus10 300Gb drives (SATA), also got 4 of their 200Gb drives (SATA), and 3 other maxtor drives (IDE) and they are all great....

infact the only drive i have that isnt maxtor is my raptor in my gaming rig.

if your want a reliable and fast drive go for the western digital 320gig raid edition drive.

Thanks for the tips, looks like its gonna be the Western Digital Caviar 320 RAID edition.

I have 4 of those seagate drives and they are excellent, not the fastest by any means but very reliable and quiet and have a 5 year warranty!
