Overall: Not the fastest drive, but extremely cool and quiet

There are two Spinpoint P120 Serial ATA (Sata) hard drive models, the SP2004C, a 200GB disk, and the 250GB SP2504C.

They come with Sata2 interfaces and are rated at 3Gbytes/sec. NCQ (Native Command Queuing) and an 8MB cache also come as standard.

The SP2504C uses two 125GB platters to achieve its 250GB capacity and has a spin speed of 7,200rpm. Samsung quotes a 8.9ms seek time for the drive.

Seagate’s Noiseguard and Silentseek technologies make this an extremely quiet drive. It also runs cooler than many of its competitors, making it ideal for small form factor PCs.
