Hi, I am buying a new hard drive for my computer and would like to know what the best deals are at the moment
I have seen a lot of ecogreen models recently, but it looks like they operate at slower 5400rpm compared to the usual 7200rpm. I would opt for performance over noise/power consumption as I will be using the drive to access huge files and playing games
I'm not sure what bearing RPM/Cache size has on the performance. My budget is around £60 and my current picks are:
Samsung EcoGreen F2 1TB (5400rpm/32MB cache - £58.99
Western Digital 1TB Hard Drive (5400rpm/32MB cache) £62.99
Hitatchi Deskstar 1TB (7200rpm/16MB cache £54.99
