Which 4tb hard drive can I buy to store my data? give your best advice guys, I don't know which one to buy, WD black performance or Seagate. thank you.

4TB is large so I suspect you are doing more than gaming. What will you use it for? Makes a difference in selection (speed vs data reliability vs mechanical failure rate)

Hey! Thank you for promptly responding and sorry for my late response, yes, I do photography, videos and graphic design, I was thinking about wd black performance, I dont Know what to say about speed vs data reliability vs mechanical failure rate. I think I will need data reliability right?

Okay, here is a suggestion. Chose mainly based upon mechanical failure rate and speed. A wrong bit here or there is not going to be a big issue for you. The hybrid drive will help if you have some files which you are constantly accessing on the drive. Links below to some info.
