What hdd is better for gaming

UnknownDZN · Sep 8, 2018

Hi, I am wondering on what to get for a hdd so I found some but I don't really care about the amount of gb it has but I am trying to find what is faster for gaming because the one I have now keeps on freezing my game so here are the ones I found

Western Digital WD VelociRaptor WD3000BLFS 300GB 10000 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5" Internal Enterprise Hard Drive Bare Drive

or

WD Blue 1TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD10EZEX - OEM

A solid state disk is faster than either one. Get a 240GB SSD. The Crucial MX500 are an inexpensive choice.

Velociraptor and other similar enterprise HDDs are far too expensive for what you'll gain over something like a 1TB WD Black.

As far as HDD vs SSD goes, almost any modern SSD will be significantly faster than the fastest HDD mainly due to SSDs having 10-100X quicker access time.
