Web site copy for the Seagate Baracuda 500 GB drive used in Time Capsule:
The Seagate® Barracuda® ES enterprise hard drive is the industry’s most reliable, highest capacity 7200-RPM hard drive for 24 x 7, multidrive, business-critical applications.
Web site copy for the Hitachi DeskStar 721010KLA330:
Suggested Applications: Internal and external storage for consumer computers * Networked storage servers * Extreme gaming machines * Video editing arrays
I don't know, sounds like server grade to me. It might not be the very best hard drives in their respective line-ups, but I don't see anything misleading about the drives that Apple went with. I have a suggestion for you, Flashpoint. Instead of regurgitating all the Anti-Apple FUD in the media (mostly by tech reporters with no background in tech), why don't you do some research on your own for a change?
