caviar green? black? blue?

nirharpaz · Sep 18, 2013

Im looking for a 2ndary hard dist for my pc.
atm i aim to have my OS on a seperate 120GB SSD drive so what im looking for now is storage drive that will not be too slow for anything that isnt on the SSD.

which caviar should i go to? and is WD really the best option comparing to Seagate?

Black > blue,green. If you can afford it, buy it. If you cannot, you will not be dissapointed by blue/green.
Both WD and seagate build great hdds

Then use the Blue, Green is slower and parks its heads often so there would be a lot of lag for other than just storage with occasional access. Black is a great drive, but runs hotter and uses more energy -- it would be my first choice for an OS drive if you didn't want an SSD.

Here's the WD paper on the drives, and what the best use for each is.
