New Hard drive

[apriliamgt]

My HD has failed so need to buy a new one.

There are so many to choose from. Im looking to spend upto £40 or maybe alittle over.

Im not sure what to look for RPM's / cache size etc

Get a Western Digital/Samsung or Seagate.

Samsung HD103SJ Spinpoint F3 1TB Hard Drive SATAII 7200rpm 32MB Cache

this looks like a good one

This Western Digital has twice the cache as the Samsung.

The Samsung F3 will smoke it performance wise.

Oh yeah, just read the specs, over 100mbps difference
