Yes.
Reply:I prefer Serial-ATA connections, only if your system has Serial-ATA controllers.





Serial-ATA has shorter cables.





Otherwise, the above drive is perfect if the price is less than $100.

Seagate is one among the leaders in Hard Disk Manufacturing.


They maintain International Standards.





Only thing of concern is the cost compared to others.


Its quality is high and cost also little high but worth buying.





Low cost hard disks are also available but quality ?
