    Duration of ownership: 1 Months

    Strengths: Speed - IF you remove the jumper.

    Weaknesses:It's pretty noisy AND, you have to remove a jumper!

    Overall Evaluation: I can understand Seagate cutting costs by eliminating insultation which reduces noise. Lucky for us, we get Seagate drive quality, half a Terabyte of storage for less than ever. But why? WHY does Seagate shoot themselves in the foot with that stupid 150 limiter jumper? I took mine off and my hard drive rating in Vista went from 5.4 to 5.8 AND, the background operation of the drive went quiet. It's still noisy upfront.
