any plans to review this? Would be intersting to compare it to the WD and see whether the WD was a slow drive even compared to another so called green drive. http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/1TB-Samsung-HD103SI-EcoGreen-F2-SATA-3Gb-s-HDD-32MB-Cache-89-ms-NCQ
As opposed to colour and weight? +1 on this, they look quite interesting - the Samsung website says they give the same performance as the non-ecoGreen version, while using ~2W less power, and costing a bit less too!
Evening guys any idea if we'll see this in the next week or so, my credit card finger is getting itchy...
SPCR already tested the 500 GB version. Can't really tell how much louder the 1 TB is going to be, but here's the 500 GB tested: http://www.silentpcreview.com/Silent_Samsung_F2_EcoGreen_HD502HI Seems to be pretty close to the WD GP, although a bit louder and marginally faster. Overall nothing wrong with it.
