DiamondMax Plus10 250GB SATA HDStrengths: 16 megabyte cache, NCQ, Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) motor Weakness: none This is a very quiet drive, much quieter than my other drives (WD). It is also very fast. I already had one of these in my computer from the manufacturer for eight months now and liked it so much I added this one as a second one for more storage space. I would definitely recommend getting this drive. 100% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard DriveStrengths: Lots of space, very fast, good price. Weakness: Not quite as fast as a Raptor. I couldn't be happier with this hard drive. It runs very fast, and is humongous. I shouldn't be needing a new hard drive for a very long time. This has got to be one of the best 7200rpm hard drives on the market. 90% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard DriveStrengths: 16mb Cache Size...the most remarkable thing on this hadr driver. Weakness: haven't found any yet i have been using Maxtor hard drivers for many years. I feel very satisfied with every hard driver from Maxtor. This driver is the one i like the most. It is but only fast, but also quiet and stable. 76% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Maxtor DiamondMax 10 250GB SATA-150 16MB Cache Hard...Strengths: 16MB Cache, ATA-150 Fast Speed, Lots of Space, Very Quiet Weakness: None I've been using Western Digital for many years but saw this hard drive because it didn't cost very much. Later did I find out that I was more satisfied with Maxtor. Maxtor is so much quieter than Western Digital, noticably. I think I'll be using Maxtor for now on. 75% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard DriveStrengths: Quiet and 16mb cache Weakness: none Works great, haven't had any problems with it yet. It's a brand I trust. The great thing about the dirve is the 16mb cache. Very nice for a PATA drive. 33% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Oct 14, 2005 Why is the rating a 3/5, yet the text indicated it's perfect?

Maxtor DiamondMax 250 GB Internal Hard DriveStrengths: none Weakness: broken, unreliable, flaky bought four of them. Two were broken out of the box, but I thought it was a problem with the OS or the cable setting, and labour for several weeks to fit them into my computers before I realised that two out of the four were broken. The thrid disk is unstable and looeses sectors every few weeks. 14% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Jun 3, 2005 Maxtor has one of the lowest return rates at less than 1%. The likely hood you had three bad drives is 1 in over a Million. This is taken from 1% of 1% of 1% (3 drives). So your issues are 99.9% due to inproper handling. As a manager of a PC Shop, I would recommend these drives.

Nov 26, 2005 Ya dude you can't blame Maxtor for bad handling, it's the site you bought it from.... I wouldn't buy from them again!

Feb 3, 2006 Why did it require laboring for several weeks to fit them into your computers? It takes 4 screws at most, even just one if you're feeling lazy ;) Advertisement

Great drive!!
Strengths: Very fast! NCQ is a plus!
Weakness: None!
This drive is a very fast drive. It outperforms the Seagate Barracuda. The NCQ is a really nice feature of the drive. It is almost as fast as Western Digital's Raptor drive.
