It?s been a little while since we did a 3-way drive round-up of hard drives and none so far have come close to the capacities we?re looking at in this article. We secured the largest capacity SATA-II units from Hitachi, Maxtor and Seagate ? the three companies we?d argue are the top 3 when it comes to releasing bleeding-edge performance, capacity and value.

Certainly there are some folks who?d throw Western Digital into that mix; however, their slowness to release SATA-II and other leading technologies keeps them at the bottom of the pack in our opinion.
