Samsung HDDs!!

LOL

You just proved to me that you dont actually work with computers on a daily basis cause otherwise you'd never use samsung drives.

Anyone who uses Samsung HDD's should not be allowed near a computer.

Now shhhh .. You're lowering my IQ.

Thanks.

^ Haha I think I am lowering my IQ here trying to make you understand...actually I dont have to say anything to you but to the OP who was the one who spent this much money...
Check some reviews of those F3s...

And what is wrong with samsung f3 hard drives?

 

[tserich]

From what I know there are plenty of benchmarks that show Samsung F3 HDDs are very good so I don't get why you're laughing

He is referring to the reliability of old samsung drives which was not that great. Samsung drives now are perfectly fine and perform very well.

Samsung drives are RUBBISH!! Dude i work for a computer sub-distributor and i can tell you now that we have NEVER had as many warranty returns EVER for HDD's as when we made the mistake of using Samsung drives in our systems.

You might get lucky and have your one samsung piece of *** work for you. But we were getting a return rate of 6/10!!!

6/10 HDD's returned! Samsung drives are AWFUL!And i'm only talking about just over a month ago! Actually i'll go further than that and say all Samsung products are awful .. Innov8 phone i paid $1,000 for - Broke, the 62" Samsung DLP i purchased - Still being repaired by Samsung. Samsung 50" LCD - Near death. Samsung 4 horsepower aircon in my industrial shed - Being repaired under warranty.

I don't know about in the USA, they may be good over there, but in Australia Samsung are RUBBISH. By the way the system is built in Australian dollars, not US dollars. Our parts are a fair chunk more expensive here than in the USA. Take into consideration that this system was built with distributor pricing and that it would retail for well over 5k here.

Dell apparently are great computers in the USA but over here they are rubbish, so maybe your Samsung drives ARE good. But in Australia you don't want to buy ANY brand of HDD except Seagate.

**PS i don't need to read reviews on anything. We do near on 5 million a year worth of system builds, i get to see how things perform first hand.**

Samsung is the number one provider of OEM screens for top-end LCDs such as Dell, HP, and premium brands like Lacie and Eizo.

Let us not forget S-LCD which is a joint Sony/Samsung venture that provides highend consumer screens for manufacturers like, Sony, Samsung, Hitachi and Mitsubishi.

While I cannot speak of Samsung's reliability in HDDs, to say all their products are awful is quite a broad statement that obviously holds little truth.
