Fujitsu 80GB 2.5″ MHW2080BJ Benchmarked via Bonnie++ (Linux)
The MHW2080BJ became available in the UK about 6 weeks ago and we've sold several since, primarily in our fanless T1 PC. Though we prefer solid state drives, hard drives still hold their own in some areas (moving files across the disc) and of course are much cheaper. This goes for about £21 wholesale, versus £134 for the 80GB Intel X25-M Solid State Drive.
I ran a Bonnie++ test on it. Results are here and are all in MB/sec, except Random Seeks which is just per second.
