Performance in WinBench 99

Here are the data-transfer graphs for the three hard disk drives:

  • Hitachi Travelstar 7K100 60GB (Graph)
  • Hitachi Travelstar 7K100 100GB (Graph)
  • Seagate Momentus 7200.1 100GB SATA (Graph)

The Hitachi 7K100 100GB obviously has a higher read speed than the two other drives.

Now let’s compare the performance of the drives in FAT32 basing on the High-End Disk WinMark scores. We use the generic names of the drives instead of their model names for better readability.

The Hitachi 7K100 100GB (HTS721010G9SA00) with SATA interface is obviously the best in this test. It is followed by the two Seagate drives which differ but little between each other. The Hitachi 7K100 60GB (HTS721060G9AT00) goes next and the last place goes to the 7K60 60GB (HTS726060M9AT00) which performs considerably worse than the other products.
