Barracuda V SATA 120GB HDD Review

Envy News takes a look at the ‘the first SATA incarnation on the market’ - the new Seagate Barracuda V SATA 120GB hard disk with an 8MB cache - compared with its PATA twin and a Maxtor Diamond Plus ATA/133:

“Recently, Serial ATA hit the shelves with a bang. Offering smaller cabling, faster transfer speeds, and breaking the limit on the ATA 137GB drive size limit, Serial ATA is poised to change the drive industry as we know it. In our latest review, we take a look at the first contender in the new drive war, the Seagate Barracuda V Serial ATA drive. Stacking up this 150MB/s behemoth against both an ATA/133 and an ATA/100 drive, we took a gander to see whether this drive is a welterweight contender or a heavyweight champion.”
