This review is from: Maxtor L01F300 SATA II 300 GB Hard Drive (Personal Computers)

The drive came with all the stuff needed except the 3 1/2" to 5 1/4" drive bay brackets. The disc clone software worked great, the partition software "MaxBlast" worked equally well and the cables came in both adapter type (for mating up with legacy power supplies) and newer SATA configured power supplies. The thing is FAST. I have used this drive for about 6 months and was looking to buy another one when I saw this review page.
Do not be afraid.... this one works.

This review is from: Maxtor L01F300 SATA II 300 GB Hard Drive (Personal Computers)

Very good disk at a very good price. I installed it as a single SATA drive (no RAID setup). Vista rated its performance 5.9 wich is the same as my other system (3 x Seagate BARRACUDA ES-7200.1 320GB Hard Drive, RAID 5 setup) which is strange. My RAID 5 setup theoritically should be faster and so this Maxtor (single disk) should be rated less than my RAID 5 setup. I don't why but I don't trust Vista hardware rating. For example a RADEON 2600XT 512MB in single card or Crossfire setup, Vista rated the gaming performance the same (5.4) for both setup.
The maxtor HDD is a very good buy comparing to Barracuda however My Barracuda RAID 5 setup (3 disks)is more quiet than the maxtor (Single disk). With Maxtor I can hear the disk clicking.

The drive worked right out of the box...the only problem was that windows xp had been installed on this supposedly new HD before I got it. Check to make sure the seal on the static bag has not been tampered with first.
