Question about a hard drive in a new system build

Solution


260GB or 500GB SSD for the OS and application drive. That WD Blue is a good choice.
1-2-4-8TB HDD's for other stuff and backups.
For some people, a 1TB HDD would be fine. Other people, an 8TB isn't enough.

It all depends on his use. And you can always add more drives later.
dannyinnelli, great question. Eventually storage will become a priority so it seems like a larger HDD is required. It depends a lot on budget as well. As for the Seagate drive you have choose; here is the data sheet and manual in case you need it.

Let us know if we can answer any questions; we're here to help. No matter what you choose, we thank you for considering Seagate.
