Testing:
To test the Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini I used one of the Internal drives on the test system as well as the Seagate FreeAgent Go 160GB model. I will use the program HD Tune to test several values, such as transfer rate, access time, burst rate, and CPU usage.
Testing Setup:
- Intel Core2Duo E6600 Processor
- Gigabyte 965P-DS3 Motherboard
- 2048MB G.Skill HZ RAM
- eVGA 8800GTS 640MB Video Card
- GameXtreme 700w Power Supply
- Western Digital 74GB Raptor
- Western Digital 500GB Caviar
- Sony Optical Drive
- Antec Sonata II Mid-tower Case
- Windows XP Professional
- Logitech Wireless Mouse.
Comparison Drives:
- Seagate Free Agent Go 160GB
- Western Digital 500GB Caviar
Lets take a look at the graphs. Keep in mind that the two comparison drives are internals and attached to the computer with a SATA connection.
