Hi-Tech reviews posted a review on the Hitachi 7K500 500GB SATA 2 Hard Drive

One thing that is common among people that collect songs on their computer or movies is that at some point they will evidentially run out of drive space using the drive that came installed on their computer. Hitachi has now made it possible for this point to be reached a lot farther down the road thanks to their 500 GB hard drive. The Hitachi 7K500 is not only one of the largest drives available to the public it is also one of the fastest thanks to the SATA 2 technology with speeds up to 3.0Gb/s.
