  • We will do some summarizing now. First of all, we can name the fastest 1-terabyte drive in all our tests. It is the WD RE3 (WD1002FBYS). This is the best buy if you prefer maximum performance. But if you don’t like its high price, you can take the W...

  • So how well did the Hitachi DeskStar 7K1000 perform in today's testing? Although I would have liked to have had a similarly spec'd hard drive from Western Digital or Seagate to compare the Hitachi DeskStar 7K1000 against I wasn't able to get my hands on...

  • Abstract:  We were gobsmacked by the performance of the Deskstar 7K1000. Its a seriously quick drive. The performance is no doubt thanks in part to the 32MB on board data buffer. Unfortunately, we couldnt test the performance of this drive in RAID 0 but can onl...

  • From a silencing perspective, the 7K1000 represents a small but important step forward for Hitachi. Acoustically, it still has a long way to go to match the current best of the crop, but its no longer bringing up the rear. And, if the slower performa...

  • Abstract:  A few months ago, when Hitachis DeskStar 7K1000 was, briefly, the only kid on the block packing 1TB of storage in a single 3.5-in. hard drive form factor, it would have been a no-brainer to give the unit three thumbs up, a bushel of kudos and a bucke...

  • Abstract:  I have been around for a while, and when Western Digital decided to send me their 500 GB hard drive; I drooled. Then Seagate came out with their 750 GB drive; I got goose bumps. Now, Hitachi decided to realign my particles with their 1TB SATA II hard d...

  • Abstract:  Lets fast forward to the now where the Terabyte mark has recently been reached with a single drive. Here we have Hitachis model the Deskstar 7K1000, but youll have to excuse us if we don break a bottle of champagne on its chassis to christen it. The reta...

  • Abstract:  The last time we heard from Hitachi, they had produced the fastest 500GB drive we have ever seen. Today we get shocked all over again when we review their latest 1 TB drives both alone and in a 2GB RAID 0 array! How do they perform? Click the link to f...

  • Good Performance, Tons of Storage Space
  • Price
  • As weve seen throughout this review, the Hitachi 7K1000 drive is a pretty good performing drive, and was easily able to perform better than the Maxtor drive that we compared it against. This wasnt too surprising since the Hitachi drive boasts a 32MB...
