Hey, guys. I haven't been around much these days with school and band taking up much of my life. Now that band is over, I should be back more often
Anyway, I need your opinions on something. I am getting a new hard drive this Christmas, if not sooner. My 250GB is just not enough anymore, I'm down to 80GB left and I don't want to push it anymore.
I'm split between these two drives:
This is what I was looking at first: Western Digital Caviar 1TB SATA drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136284 - 119.99 USD
Then this came out: Seagate Barracuda 1.5TB SATA drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148337
- 119.99 USD
So, now I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I have used Western Digital hard drives all my life, and have heard many times from many people that WD is superior over Seagate, but now I don't know what to believe. I could really use the extra 500GB of space. I'm leaning more and more towards the Seagate, but I don't want a drive that will be DOA, or even worse, fail on me a few weeks later.
Thanks!
