Best 1TB Harddrive

Jfrag · Mar 15, 2014

Hi! I need a 1TB Harddrive and my budget is around 75-100$. Which is the best one?

Is Wd Green a good choice?

Or is Seagate Barracuda better?

Either a WD blue or seagate barracuda the greens are a "green drive" kinda slow

Hi
What use for drive ?

Green is low energy not good for boot drive as slower
Ok for external USB
Or second data drive

Look at guarantee situation
1, 3 or occasionally 5 years

Like WD Seagate has different ranges of drives for different uses

WD Blue drives have very unstable heads, I'd recommend going with Seagate Barracuda. WD black would be my top pick, some places may carry black WD for under 100$ for 1TB

I going to use the drive for the hole system until i get a SSD.

And i think i going to go with the Seagate! Thanks for the quick response and the help!

Hmmm, I'd choose WD Black myself. They have five year warranties.
If that's too much, a WD Blue. I've used a fair number of those, and none ever had "unstable heads;" not sure where that came from.

i would choose Western Digital not Seagate as they have a higher failure rate.

Before I got my SSD, I had my system installed on the 1 TB Seagate ST1000DM003 HDD. Since I now have the SSD as my boot drive the Seagate is my "data" drive. It has performed very well in both scenarios: quiet, reliable and VERY fast! Highly recommended! http://www.seagate.com/files/staticfiles/docs/pdf/datasheet/disc/desktop-hdd-data-sheet-ds1770-1-1212us.pdf
