Tom's Hardware: Comparison Testing of 22 Hard Disk Drives

Tom's hardware "put 14 SATA and 8 UltraATA models through their paces in the THG test labs. The result is a familiar look and feel for a new product category round-up: hard disks."
Since, I just bought 3 hard drives, it's typical that yesterday Tom's did a review of them all. I ordered 2 Maxtor Diamond Max 160GB HDs, for my netgear SC101 (whenever buy.com ships it,I have the other items I ordered) with a 3 year warranty, and a Seagate 120GB with a 5 year warranty, with a great rebate, at best buy. I like the longer warranties, to minimize the cost of hardware failures, but as I type this I wonder if them being PATA133 will be what makes them obsolete.... (I do have SATA connectors on this mobo, but don't have any drives that are, yet.)

Good article, as usual, from Tom's.
