This Seagate if you can use the promo code http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148697
Or even better this Samsung F3 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152185
No mechanical drive can max the SATA II interface so SATA II or III really does not matter until SSD's.

You can't go wrong with Western Digital Caviar Black.

never use a green drive for gaming, those are more oriented for storing images and videos since it has a slower read speed

I went with this hard drive for $119 off tigerdirect.com

Seagate Barracuda
ST2000DM001 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive -
7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s

Figure 2tb good for $119???
