Category:
Hard disk drives are today's fastest permanent storage media and have a large capacity. For this two reasons they are the most used storage medium in computers and servers. When buying a new hard disk, there are three important things to consider:
- The connection of the disk to the computer or other device you will be using it with has a big influence on the speed with which data can be read from/written to the disk. Make sure the connection of the disk you buy is compatible with your computer!
- The rotational speed is also important for the speed with which data can be read from/written to the disk and determines the time it takes to find a file on the disk.
- Last but not least, the storage capacity of the disk, i.e. the amount of data that can be stored on the disk.

Hard disk drives have somehow fallen out of our scope recently. No, we have not switched exclusively to solid state drives. There have been just no products for us to review. Having released their 2-terabyte HDDs with a spindle rotation speed of 7200 R...
We want to say a few words about the Samsung SpinPoint F4 first. The company decided to introduce new platters into small-capacity products and this solution seems to be right. The SpinPoint F4 is fast, inexpensive (at least, inexpensive to make) and... |

In contrast to Samsung's highly visible marketing efforts in other sectors, its hard drives run virtually stealthed in the marketplace. They've long been prized for low noise by SPCR aficionados, however. We tackle the biggest of their F3 EcoGreen mode...
Our sample of the Samsung F3 EcoGreen 2TB HD203WI proved to be fairly quiet but not exceptional acoustically. Its noise level is nearly up to the quietest 7200 RPM drives. It does not fare well in a comparison with similar capacity quiet 3.5" drives f... |

Samsung’s 2TB SpinPoint F3 EcoGreen (officially, the Samsung HD203WI) first made its way to retailers’ inventories earlier this year, and has quietly been gaining ground in the eco-aware desktop drive market since that time. Breaking with manufacturers...

With the F3EG, Samsung has succeeded in building a drive that users praise for its quiet, cool performance, minimal power consumption, and huge storage capacity. If there’s a trade-off here, it comes in the form of performance which is generally slowe... |

Our desktop performance index provides a useful summary and overview on the performance characteristics of both hard drives reviewed here. Seagate’s Constellation ES is much faster than the Samsung Spinpoint F3EG. The Constellation ES slightly outperforms the Barracuda XT, but the two are comparable overall. The Spinpoint F3EG is Samsung’s first 2TB hard drive, but it still underperforms the Spinpoint F3...

a very good deal. So today we'll take one of these drives and check it out to see where the 5400 RPM Samsung-HD203WI is in terms of performance and noise, which will be a good pointer to see where drives like these are ranked for storage anno 2010. S...
Final Words & Conclusion The Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD203WI is what it is, a bulky and huge storage unit. As such the performance was as expected. Quite honestly for a 2000 GB unit at 5400 RPM the performance really is quite okay. At the beginning of t... |

Above is a chart we put together that represents an (unweighted) geometric mean of the overall performance of each drive, based on all the tests we performed. Use this chart as a rough guide only, as we used an admittedly simplistic methodology to create these comparison numbers: All the test scores were calculated with equal weighting; we factored...
