An excellent product, good price, and so far it has performed perfectly. I even installed it in an old Aptiva from 1996. It runs almost noiselessly, and acess times are so fast that I never notice them. Installation was a breeze, I didnt even have to use the install disks. I would reccomend this to anyone.

I have just purchased two of these drives, I know they will perform flawlessly and give me the performance and reliability I have come to expect from the Maxtor DiamondMax series of drives as I have been purchasing them since they were first introduced around 10 years ago. I have bought quite a few of these drives.
