Offering good performance despite disappointing SATA 6Gb/s results, the Seagate Barracuda XT 2TB is only let down by its high price, which in some cases is twice what the competition demand for similar capacity hard drives....
Die 6-Gigabit-SATA-Schnittstelle macht aus dem Laufwerk kein Spitzenmodell, das die Konkurrenz in den Schatten stellt. Im Gegenteil – die Leistung ist insgesamt nur guter Durchschnitt....
Great total capacity and really good performance, but it comes at a high price premium. * Test Bed: Gigabyte P55A-UD6 motherboard, Intel Core i5 661 (3.33 GHz) CPU, 2GB (1800MHz) Patriot DDR3 RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT graphic card, Windows 7 Ult...
At the onset of this review, I pretty much had myself convinced that there was going to be little to gain from the increased bandwidth of the new SATA 3 bus with this drive. Time and time again we have seen bandwidth speeds increase, while other facto...
Western Digital Caviar Black 2 terabyte koster i skrivende stund cirka 2 200 kroner. Seagate Barracuda XT blir et par hundre kroner dyrere. Når vi i praksis ikke kan si at det er noen spesiell ytelsesforskjell blir det litt hipp som happ hva man velg...

Abstract: Les progrès accomplis par les fabricants de disques durs en termes de densité de stockage ont un double intérêt : d’une part, la baisse du nombre de plateaux pour les capacités clé (500 Go et 1 To) et d’autre part, la commercialisation de modèles 2 To ...
Abstract: If you remove the SATA 3.0 interface from the equation you'll find the Barracuda XT doesn't bring a great deal to the 2TB party. Unfortunately it has the same performance as a regular SATA 2.0 hard drive yet it looks rather expensive, as you pay a hef...
Abstract: It is simple with the Seagate drive: the high access time cannot be compensated by the 64MB buffer and faster interface. The Barracuda XT is inferior to WD’s models through most of the tests but consumes less power.
Seagate’s Barracuda XT may be the first hard drive to use the new 6Gb/s Sata 3.0 interface, but the new technology doesn’t deliver any obvious benefit. Two terabytes of storage is welcome, but Seagate is charging a very high price. There are c...
