My Seagate Barracuda croaked a few weeks ago and I'm looking for a replacement.
I wanted to ask your opinions about SSDs and HDDs. How reliable are SSDs?
I'm thinking about:
1) Buying an 120GB SSD for booting up and system files + a 750-1000GB external HDD for my media.
2) Buying just another HDD, 1TB or 2TB.
The prices of SSDs have probably come down by now, I don't know the initial prices.
This time around I want to get security and value/efficiency for my money.
Thanks
EDIT: If it matters, I have ONE free SATA2 connector in my case, unless I unplug the DVD, then I'd have another one.
