Dude Maxtor no longer makes any hard drives as its owned by Seagate. If you go to Seagate.com and look up the Maxtor 320gb SATA model, you will see the markings for the drive are identical to the Seagate 7200.10 SaTA 320GB model (with a M in the model name to signify Maxtor). When you get the drive you will be able to correlate the model number to the Seagate equivalent SATA drive. The ONLY downside to Maxtor SATA drives is that it only carries a 3 year warranty as opposed to Seagate's 5 years.

Now Maxtor IDE drives I can't comment.

Don't bet on it.

I bought this line of bull last time and got a 300 Maxtor just like it says.

It's worth $50 bucks, but it's definitely NOT a "Seagate perpendicular drive [7200.10]"

Thanks, I will go for Seagate 320GB w/ 5yrs warranty.
Get 2 + a raid controller.... sweet!

Plus, Seagate is a lot better than Maxtor nowadays.

Thanks OP!

The Bonus 20GB gives it away (for the most part) to be the 320GB Seagates. YMMV!

Whats difference between SATA and PATA. Do they both work with a 2 year old HP with the ribbon connector?

Ribbon connector is PATA

I guess YMMV.

Personally I ordered both the SATA/PATA a few months ago, and they turned out to be..

MXT L01Y300 300GB PATA - MAXTOR STM3320620A 320 GB
MXT L01F300 300GB SATA - MAXTOR STM3320620AS 320 GB

Same here... basically anything in a Maxtor box, with a 'bonus' on it, is a Seagate inside.

Actually, they're the same these days... just a different label on the disk... And the Maxtor labeled drives only carry a 3 year warranty, as opposed to 5 years on the Seagate labeled ones.
