Advice please...
Seagate Buffer to/from Host (max.): 150 Mbytes/s Average Seek Time: 8.5s Samsung Buffer to/from Host (max.): 300Mbytes/s Average Seek Time: 8.9s --- Bearing in mind they're similar in everything (8MB cache, 7200 rpm, and roughly the same price) other then the specs above, which 160GB SATA drive would you go to for audio work? I only need it for recording no more then ten tracks at a time (44.1/24) using Pro Tools LE 6.9 (Digi 002) + Mac G5 2.5 Dual. Basically, what's more important? Buffer handling or Average Seek Time? If you guys have some other thoughts to share - like noise and reliability - please do it...! BTW... although I've always heard that Average Seek Time is what matters the most, I would guess the Samsung offers better performance cause the AST difference is very small, and the Buffer capacity of the Samsung is much higher, but would it be as reliable as the Seagate... I never had problems with the Seagates I owned in the past, and never used Samsung... Thanks in advance... |
