HDD

Evolved_Evil · July 18, 2015

I want a quiet, reliable, fast and 1-2 TB of HDD storage.

If there is a good price somewhere let me know.

I currently run my OS/games off a 256gb 850 Pro

Ran out of space quick when i need to save large videos

WD10EZEX is a really popular 1TB drive.

Might want to check out the Green from WD. It is a 5,400 rpm so you won't really want to play most games off of it, but this will work great for archiving large videos, and is very quiet as seen here. As far as a slightly louder faster hdd, Hitachi has a very inexpensive hdd here!

Hi there.

Since you're looking for a secondary mass storage unit for additional capacity you can take a look at WD Green. It is an energy-efficient HDD that works cool, quiet and saves a lot of power, and it is designed for backups and secondary storage. Its features allow it to be a great choice for quiet backup builds or for archiving (for instance it spins down when it can, e.g. once an hour). It is mostly chosen for massive media storage (up to 6TB) in builds that have another drive for the OS and active programs and games. Here's a link if you want to check it out:

Hope this helps and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Cheers!
