After going back and forth utilizing the internet and specialists at Microcenter and Fry's, I am still confused and trying to find the best hard drive for a HTPC build with a Ceton Infiniti 4 tuner.
I am going to use a SSD for the main drive and then use 1 or 2, 2TB hard drives for storing recorded tv (looking to spend about $115 max per drive). Some say go with WD green drives (two similar drives one ends in ears and the other ends in eads), others says go for a black 7200 rpm drive. I also saw cache at either 32mb or 64mb and some SATA 3 and some SATA6.
Also I was told a 60gb SSD would be sufficient. Again, any recommendations for a SSD would be greatly appreciated (spend about $100)!!
