LabsPATA hard disks
Excelstor's Jupiter J8160 costs the same as Hitachi's 160GB PATA hard disks. It performed consistently well in all our file transfer tests, especially when writing small files where it was the fastest PATA disk here. If you're looking for a cheap disk for a budget computer it is great value, but its relatively high cost per gigabyte makes the higher-capacity disks better value. SPECIFICATIONS:
