No, The 2 tb is 5400 rpm( WD WD20EZRZ) and the other 500 gig (Toshiba DT01ACA050)
is 7,200 rpm.

Are they both 7200 RPM?

also another thing to add the 2 tb one is very loud and i can feel the vibration on the whole table

I would put windows on the faster drive for sure.
Also all your most used programs. The games can be on the 2TB drive then.

Maybe you can come up with an idea for a soft mounting solution.
Something to absorb the vibrations.

Installing Windows on the faster drive will be the best thing to do. Since the 2TB is slightly slower I'd put all the games on there, as game loading times won't be affected too much with a 5400 rpm drive.
