Your 320 was probably a perpendicular drive, I'm not sure if this is.

It's a 7200.9, so no. it's not a perp.

It's actually better. The gig : dollar ratio is the same but you're buying an even denser drive. :D As broke as I am I think I have to buy this.

EDIT: Wow 500GB drives are right around 25 cents a gig across the board! I guess this means TB drives are right around the horizon -- guess I'll pass on this drive for now. Good deal though! :)

seagate will release their 7200.11 1TB drive by the end of april, hopefully they have a full lineup of 7200.11 drives that come out along with it.

=\ I was thinking about it, if I want to back up all my DVDs in to compressed 4.7GB format I'll need more than one 1TB drives, then if I run RAID1 ... plus all the ~300GB I have loaded now... :(
