Well, I'd like to know more...
My observation on reading many of the reviews is that the review
posted with a particular drive, for example, isn't really about that
particular model drive at all. Sometimes this is pretty clear, but
often it seems obscured. Did you happen to notice similar instances?
IIRC, I've seen that in reviews on both Amazon and Newegg.


Both Amazon and Newegg mix up hard drive reviews like that.
And you know they're doing that on purpose.
