Our take
If you're specifically looking for a 1TB hard drive with a 7200 RPM spin, this Hitachi Ultrastar offers the capacity and speed for basic storage needs. The 32 MB cache is an improvement over some older models, which helps with frequently accessed data. However, the reliance on a SATA I interface is a significant drawback, as this is an older standard with slower theoretical transfer speeds compared to modern SATA III. While it's compatible with PCs and offers hot-swap features, I'd primarily recommend this for systems where a very specific, older interface is required, or for non-performance-critical archival storage. For most users, a drive with a newer SATA interface would be a better choice.
