No that would be incorrect. The Samsung is only faster in synthetic benchmarks. In benchmarks that simulate normal usage the Hitachi is faster.
For example:
While the Samsung scores 8,06.
Unfortunately we don't have more application benchmark results at hand, otherwise it would be even more clear. Besides that, the Samsung is ATA and Hitachi 7K200 is SATA, so different interfaces for different laptops.
PS. It is more than likely that the newer Hitachi 7K320 and WD Black Scorpio will be faster than these drives.
