Which is a better hard drive samsung or seagate

[NicoleHoff]

HI

I'm considering buying a 2TB hard drive...

Could you tell me which is a better option

Samsung or seagate?

I'm going to stick my neck out here: They are both fine products, get whichever is on sale. In the small quantities in which we enthusiasts buy them (I have only thirteen drives at home), the odds of drive failure in a given time are not affected by the choice.

Unless you get one of the Seagate 7200.11 series. That was a disaster.

They are both decent, but if you want better warranty go for WD Black.
