DiamondMax Plus10 250GB SATA HD

Strengths: 16 megabyte cache, NCQ, Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) motor

Weakness: none

This is a very quiet drive, much quieter than my other drives (WD). It is also very fast. I already had one of these in my computer from the manufacturer for eight months now and liked it so much I added this one as a second one for more storage space. I would definitely recommend getting this drive.

Great drive!!

Strengths: Very fast! NCQ is a plus!

Weakness: None!

This drive is a very fast drive. It outperforms the Seagate Barracuda. The NCQ is a really nice feature of the drive. It is almost as fast as Western Digital's Raptor drive.

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard Drive

Strengths: Lots of space, very fast, good price.

Weakness: Not quite as fast as a Raptor.

I couldn't be happier with this hard drive. It runs very fast, and is humongous. I shouldn't be needing a new hard drive for a very long time. This has got to be one of the best 7200rpm hard drives on the market.

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard Drive

Strengths: 16mb Cache Size...the most remarkable thing on this hadr driver.

Weakness: haven't found any yet

i have been using Maxtor hard drivers for many years. I feel very satisfied with every hard driver from Maxtor. This driver is the one i like the most. It is but only fast, but also quiet and stable.

Maxtor DiamondMax 10 250GB SATA-150 16MB Cache Hard...

Strengths: 16MB Cache, ATA-150 Fast Speed, Lots of Space, Very Quiet

Weakness: None

I've been using Western Digital for many years but saw this hard drive because it didn't cost very much. Later did I find out that I was more satisfied with Maxtor. Maxtor is so much quieter than Western Digital, noticably. I think I'll be using Maxtor for now on.

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard Drive

Strengths: Quiet and 16mb cache

Weakness: none

Works great, haven't had any problems with it yet. It's a brand I trust. The great thing about the dirve is the 16mb cache. Very nice for a PATA drive.

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard Drive

Strengths: none

Weakness: broken, unreliable, flaky

bought four of them. Two were broken out of the box, but I thought it was a problem with the OS or the cable setting, and labour for several weeks to fit them into my computers before I realised that two out of the four were broken. The thrid disk is unstable and looeses sectors every few weeks.
