Our take
This Hitachi Travelstar 500GB drive is a straightforward option if you're looking for a reliable, if not blazing fast, storage solution for a desktop PC. The 5400 RPM speed is standard for power efficiency and quiet operation, making it suitable for general use or as a secondary storage drive for documents and media. The SATA II interface and 8MB cache are perfectly adequate for its intended purpose. While 500GB capacity is not massive, it’s a practical amount for many users, especially at this price. The 'low noise level' feature is a nice bonus if you're building a quiet PC, and it's a solid, no-frills HDD.
