HDD for my new build

[tylerjrb]

Hey, im looking for a hard drive for my new pc build. Id like it to be reliable and fast so something like a 7200rpm drive. What do you guys reccommend? Im willing to go up to £100 maybe be a little more if needed. And if possible 2TB space as i write up a lot of work, gaming and do occasional youtube videos and video editing so the space is needed.

Im a little unsure on what good brands are for drives and whats reliable etc.

Thanks .

Either Seagate or Western Digital. However, it seems this seagate will be your cheapest unless you can find a deal somewhere. I know you aren't from the USA so compare shop.

Thanks john. Ive decided to go with the seagate barracuda as this looks to be the best value within my price range.

I remember when most hard disk drives had three year warranties.

That two terabyte hard drive has a two year warranty. Hopefully hard drive manufacturers don't cheap out on us more on warranties in the future.

All the warranties changed when the flood happened. However, the Caviar black drives from WD still have a 5 year warranty.
