...what you pay for. However, Samsung are the forerunners in a rapidly growing initiative to provide good-quality hardware at affordable prices. Let's not forget that other 1TB hard-drives can stretch up into the hundreds without offering any bonuses in terms of speed or reliability. I have never installed a hard-drive prior to buying this, but found the instructions so easy to follow that I was able to do it myself and format it in no time at all. ...
...The product description offered by Samsung recommends this product in particular for high-end desktops. Obviously a terabyte hard-drive is going to cost more than a smaller variety, so this product is more suited to someone in need of plenty of disk space than a casual keyboard-tapper. However, this is (as already mentioned) by far the cheapest terabyte hard drive that I have found and in terms of quality and reliability it far out-performs many ...

I've got the power... or space I guess

Advantages: Huge storage
Disadvantages: Very expensive

...to set up (like most microsoft accessories!). The hardrive is fairly hard wearing, mine has survived a few bumps and scratches... and my xbox deciding it didnt like standing horizontal and wanted to go vertical... dont ask. The 120gb hardrive costs around £80 which is alright but when you consider you can get 200gb hardrives for PC's for £50 its not so great. In Summary, if you want to download lots of demo's and Movies then this is an essential ...
