XtremeResources Senior European reviewer Grace today takes a look at and evaluates the new SATAII offering from Hitachi, the Deskstar T7K250 SATAII Hard Drive.

The SATA hard disk drive became a standard in every new system recently. As the IDE disk drives fade away, SATA disk drives will fully replace them in the near future. A few months ago, the SATA II connection protocol was introduced as well, which allows twice the transfer speeds of the SATA protocol, 300MB/s instead of 150MB/s. Hitachi introduced one of the first SATA II compliant drives recently, the Deskstar T7K250. Let us see how this drive performs and if it is a worthwhile competitor.
