Hey. Im going to buy a new HDD this week because it looks like my current one is dying so Im looking for some advice.
I was looking at "Western Digital 1TB 7200RPM 64MB SATA3 Caviar Black" but I've heard some people saying that Caviar black HDDs are usually loud and makes scratching or grinding noises. Is it true with this model? Are the Caviar blue ones making noticeably less noise? Is the performance difference between Black and Blue really noticeable?
Also what is your opinion on "Seagate 1TB, 7200rpm, 64MB, Sata III, Barracuda"?
Please feel free to suggest any other HDDs as long as they have 750GB or 1TB capacity, 7200rpm and 64mb cache. Price should be somewhere around 100$
Thanks.
