Old WD Raptor 32GB vs. Samsung F3

I would opt for the new drive.
1-The Raptor is old, it's really getting close to it's use by date.
2-It's noisy.
3-It's only just big enough, with not much wiggle room.
4-Do you really need the extra speed badly enough to put up with the noise and little space.
A 64 bit instalation of W7 requires at least 20 GB by the time you install your programs, get Windows updates, Windows restore points, swap file, you get the picture.
Of course if you can find the $$$ for a new 300GB or even a 150GB Raptor by all means go for it.

I was considering SSD HDD, but 64GB is small (when I think about next years) and 128GB is too expensive for me. That's why I considering 1TB Samsung F3 - when I buy SSD in the future, I can still use this 1TB as a storage.

I just purchased 2 Samsung F3s 500 gig and set up raid 0 on my second rig. They are FAST!
