Everyone has their own opinion on hardware these days. Hard drives have been one of the few components that most people have brand loyalty to for years and years. I have owned Western Digital and Samsung hard drives, but I had larger storage needs and needed a little more space. I decided to try a new brand, and this can lead to a change in brand loyalty. I chose a Maxtor due to their reasonable price and quality.

The Maxtor DimondMax® 200Gb ultra ATA133 8mb cache 7200rpm drive features:
- Fast ATA/Enhanced IDE Compatible
- Burst Data Transfer Speeds up to 133 MB/sec
- 200 GB capacities
- 9.0 ms average seek time
- 8MB & 16MB Cache Buffer (this is the interesting part)
- Quiet Drive Technology
- 100% FDB Motor
- Shock Protection System
- Data Protection System
- 7200 RPM
- 1Year Limited Warranty
