Seagate Momentus 5400.3 160GB 2.5" HDD

Introduction


A few months back, we published a comparison of several 100GB 2.5" HDD and 120GB 2.5" HDDs.  Today, we examine Seagate's mini-behemoth, the Momentus 5400.3 160GB 2.5" HDD.

With a 160GB 2.5" HDD, laptops, MP3 players and PMPs can be upgraded with immense portable storage.  Games, multimedia files, music, movies and your standard OS and work files can all reside nicely and comfortably.  As for MP3 players, 160GB would give you close to 47,000 3.5MB songs.  Crazeee!!!  Personally, I've transplanted this 5400.3 in my old Archos Jukebox Recorder 20, and it works splendidly!

But what about performance? Did this next generation of Momentus take a step forward or back?  We shall see...

PLEASE NOTE:

Some laptop and MP3 player manufacturers will consider your warranty VOID if you decide to crack open your device.  Please consult your users manual or contact your device's manufacturer to be 100% sure.
