This Samsung Spinpoint 1TB SATA II drive is great - it's built with quality and high performance. It's also very quiet, and doesn't generate a whole lot of heat (compared to some rivals). I use it in my media server as a media storage drive - it houses all of my videos and streams perfectly to any room in my house. This drive has great random access times, and I haven't had any problems with it. I highly recommend this drive to anyone looking for a modestly older, inexpensive alternative to the brand new drives that cost double and give you the same 1TB of storage. It's not a 10,000RPM Raptor, but then again it's not meant to be. 5 stars and 2 thumbs way up!

the delivery was fast. The hard drive is working great. I was worried about the compatibility. The seller even checked the compatibility for me. I trust this seller.

If you are someone who, like myself, stores media files (dvd movies, music files, pictures, etc) on your computer, you are bound to reach a point where you start running out of disk space. This is a bad thing, because it means that you will be constantly worried about not having enough room to download that song you like or uplooad those new pictures from your camera. Here is something you can do to help ward off the 'running low on disk space' blues...
Do what I did: After tiring of deciding which files to delete, I decided to invest in a larger capacity hard drive. It was one of the best moves I've made regarding upgrades to my computer and I paid a lot less money than I thought I would. After doing some shopping around on E-bay, I went with the Samsung HD103UJ, which is a SATA drive. And for well under a hundred bucks (under 90, actually) I got a brand new high quality 1TB capacity hard drive. By the way, one TB translates out to one THOUSAND gigs, and is four times the size of the hard drive I bought just a couple years back, for the same amount of money.
This is the hard drive that I would recommend to anyone (even someone I love) who has a computer that is set up for SATA- and that probably includes most of the desktop PC'a sold in the last couple years. Samsung is a name that has been around for quite awhile in the consumer electronics world and are fairly well established as a manufacturer of quality components of all kinds. And in this case, I installed the drive into my computer, connected the sata cable (this took all of 5 minutes), and have not had one single problem of any kind... just tons of more hard drive space.
I am so well satisfied with my Samsung hard drive that I decided to write a review, for the first time in my life. I'm the kind of person that 'calls 'em like I see 'em', and the bottom line is this: if you want a high quality, high capacity hard drive that is hassle free- all for a surprisingly low price, then you will find what you are looking for with the Samsung HD 103UJ one TB SATA hard drive. I know I did.
