750617 2009-02-23 09:29:00 I went to buy a seagate sataII hdd and I discover that they have model or code suffixes. I need it for a home based XP machine use for web browsing, gaming & Msoft office etc. Can someone please advise me.
Codes are ncq, sas, sv35 3series, es, es2, 10 ,11. 1.5TB.

Using google I found:

ncq is: "native command queuing"
www.webopedia.com

The 10 & 11 look to be random read seek time (performance indicator)

Sas... is serial attached scsi
www.webopedia.com

This the PC shop page I am looking at:
www.einfo.co.nz

It would appear that the NCQ is the one to go for, please help demystify it for me, many thanks.

P.S. this is a great forum, simply awesome!
