Gaming New Hard Drive

[Banger]

Ok I am looking for a new hard drive. I always go for Cheapest Per gig (Generally speaking, as I also want a good drive) 6 Months ago I ordered 4x 640 gig drives as they were cheapest per gig then however times have changed. I live in the "Stats" I prefer to order online and their is no good local "computer" shops well at a decent price at least so online order is a must.

I am looking for preferably internal, externals are ok but the price is usually more and just cause clutter. I have no interest in paying more then $150. SATA2 With a good Warranty. I think that is all. I might add more info later.

Here are a few I have been looking at but I am looking for opinions and other possibilities.
Western Digital Caviar 640GB: $69.99 - $0.109 Per Gig - I have 4 of these they were a bit more when I purchased them but not to much of a price drop
SAMSUNG Spinpoint F1 750GB: $79.99 - $0.107 Per Gig
Western Digital Caviar 1TB: $99.99 - $0.098 Per Gig
SAMSUNG HD103UI 1TB: $94.99 - $0.093 Per Gig
Seagate Barracuda 1.5TB: $139.99 $0.091 Per Gig



Note: Per gig prices have been rounded.

Id go with the samsung, the spinpoints have always been great for me, good value, resonablely quite, and ive had my two 500 gigs for years and theve never broken/corrupted themselves

Seagate barracuda, 5 year warrenty FTW!

I've been buying Seagates lately and they're been fantastic. I've got 2 externals and an internal, all going smooth as silk. Go for them.

seagate are the most reliable IMO

I have a western digital external 500gb, a seagate external 250gb and a seagate internal 160gb. All working fine sice I got them. No problems at all for these two brands!

WD or Seagate (both great brands, NEVER had problems with those and when I did the RMA was flawless and I didn;t have receipts anymore). If you want speed 4 cheap though why not go RAID? Make some nice 0,1 / 1,0 combo or maybe RAID5 to keep more space.

I just had a Seagate 500GB DOA on me and went for a WD instead. Glad I did!
