Picked up a b-grade WD Caviar SE16 320Gb 16Mb cache HDD today for the bargain price of £31

Do these bencies look ok? The WD is on the right, the one on the left is my Samsung Spinpoint 250Gb

 
Ordered 2 when it was still at £34 :mad:

Aye the benchie is very similar to mine:

Hmm ok got my other drive yesterday and it managed 60mb/s in HD Tach, I'm slightly worried as even my old Maxtor 80Gb SATA2 can did 62Mb/s :-/ You get what you paid for then I guess?

Any others have results for this drive?
