The early ATA Momentus series was almost unheard of and it wasn't until the Barracuda arrived that Seagate got its slice of the pie. Of all the manufacturers, Seagate is yet to disappoint me. The updated Barracuda 7200.7 was the nail in the coffin. A combination of the best warranty in the industry (5 years replacement), the quietest widely available drives (note that Samsung's SpinPoint series is a bit hard to come by), low access times, high performance, and an impressive track record all make for a near perfect drive. A while back we took a peak at Seagate's 200GB USB drive combo and were very impressed with its quality. Today we have a newer model up for evaluation, the 120GB SATA Barracuda 7200.7. Keep in mind this isn't the newest drive currently on the market; Seagate recently announced their 7200.8 series featuring native command queuing and lower 8ms access times. Supposedly this technology outperforms standard 10,000RPM SATA and PATA drives; even WD's Raptor may get a run for its money.
