Western Digital Caviar Black 1.5TB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:
Louder than the average drive but it is also faster than the average drive. Not loud enough to bug me.
Pros: Fast, big, 5 year warranty, reliable manufacturer |
HD Tune-----------------------------Max transfer rate: 143 MB/sAvg Transfer rate: 119 MB/sAccess time: 10.2 msA fast drive with a long warranty from a reliable manufacturer. I can really notice the speed when transferring big files between this and my 640 GB WD Black compared to other drives.You can't go wrong with a WD Black, I've gotten 3 now and have had the first one for a year and no problems whatsoever.Make sure your case has decent airflow or keep an eye on the temp because it does get warmer than most drives when it is real busy. But again it is more reliable, faster, and has a longer warranty than most.
