Conclusion:

The Samsung SpinPoint HD160JJ is an extraordinary hard drive and retails for just under $120USD (at time of press), making it competitively marketed with a very high price to performance ratio. Its relatively large capacity, near silent operation and advanced technologies such as NCQ and staggered spin up support are sure to entice computer enthusiasts of all ages.

I have always been rather partial to Western Digital hard drives, but after spending considerable time with the Samsung SpinPoint HD160JJ, I can honestly say I am reconsidering my loyalties. If you are in the market for a new hard drive give this baby a look - I give it a wholehearted recommendation.

Delving into the good and bad points of the Samsung SpinPoint HD160JJ when writing this conclusion, I honestly found it a struggle to find anything negative to document. For this and the aforementioned advantages the SpinPoint HD160JJ earns the Heavenly Hardware Gold Award.
