CNET product brief: The Hitachi DK23CA is a 20GB, standard hard disk drive. Compared to other standard hard drives on the market, it is very inexpensive at around $75. Read the entire product brief.

 CNET product brief
Description: The Hitachi DK23CA is a 20GB, standard hard disk drive. Compared to other standard hard drives on the market, it is very inexpensive at around $75. Its maximum internal data transfer rate (how fast it can actually pull data from the disk surface) of 30.2 MBps is fairly standard, compared to the typical hard drive. Its burst transfer rate is 100 MBps. This is a 4200 rpm drive and comes with a 2MB cache. 


Pros: None noted, given available product data. 


Cons: Spins at only 4200 rpm, which is somewhat slower than some similarly priced hard drives. For example, the  HP Hard Drive , a 36GB hard drive at around $75, spins at 10000 rpm. Also, this hard drive has only a 20GB capacity. This is not out of line with the product's price, but is smaller than the average hard drive on the market today. 


Suitability: A standard hard drive, suited for general computing. 


Value: In view of its very inexpensive price, this hard drive has great features for the money.
