That Seagate will easily outperform the Raptor in many tasks because of the increased bandwidth. I'd go with the Seagate, you can get two of them and put them in a Raid-0 array and it'll completely smoke the Raptor drive in almost every category then, and you?ll still be saving some cash. If you only want one Seagate (which will still perform marvelously), use the promo code fredsbarracuda for an extra 5 bucks off.

Mine costs 100 ? /120$ technology always improves and prices always drop on new parts. I also found out that maxtor was bought by seagate so in time maxtor will dissapear.
