Zaključak

Tehnologije koje je Samsung ugradio u ove diskove za povećanje performansi i za
smanjenje zagrijavanja i buke pokazale su svoje prednosti. SpinPoint F1 serija
doista zaslužuje "F1" u svom nazivu jer su ti diskovi brži od svoje
konkurencije. Samo 3 ploče u disku ovakvog kapaciteta svakako su pridonijele
manjem zagrijavanju pa su tako ovi diskovi hladni i tihi. Tijekom rada njihova
temperatura nije prešla 30°C što je vrlo pohvalno. S ovim diskovima nećete imati
problema sa njihovim pregrijavanjem.
No F1 seriju prate glasine o nepouzdanosti. Igrom slučaja, ili možda ne pukom
slučajnošću mi smo dobili jedan defektan disk na testiranje. Ovo je stvarno
šteta jer bi u suprotnom dobili veću ocjenu, koju svojim performansama definitivno
zaslužuju. Cijena ovih diskova na našem tržištu se kreće oko 1700 kn čime se
svrstavaju u sredinu cjenovnog ranga.

Conclusion

Technologies which Samsung integrated into their hard drives
for improving performance and decreasing the heat and noise levels have shown
their advantages. The SpinPoint F1 series really deserves the "F1"
complement in its name because these disks are faster than their opponents.
Only 3 platters per drive have given their contribution in less heat dissipation
and because of this hard drives are cool and quiet. During the operation their
temperature didn’t exceed 30°C which is very good, so you won’t have any concerns
regarding overheating problems. Unfortunately there are rumors regarding the
poor realiability of these hard drives. One of the hard drives we got for the
testing was dud, so maybe these rumors are true. This really is a shame, because
otherwise these drives would receive a higher mark.
These drives cost around 1700 kn in Croatia (around 235 € including VAT) which
is in the middle of the price range.
