So I plan on getting the Intel 750 Series 400GB PCIe where i plan on installing the OS and all the games I will play from now, past, and future games. I will add a 2nd storage to add all other stuff I plan on doing with my PC with videos/music/files etc etc. Since the 2nd drive will be storage im not sure what route to take. I was looking at some videos between the samsung SSD EVO vs PRO but didnt see too much of a difference. Im thinking of either of those samsung SSDs or should i just get like a old school hard drive with hugh storage space? My PC build is for gaming some streaming and your everyday stuff.

 

So should should i go EVO or Pro? (on the samsung series) Or just get a old school western digital hard drive?

 

 

 

Which HDD's are good that are out there?

Couldn't have said it better. If you're just watching movies and stuff on it then any HDD will do.

My ~$200 USD build:

AMD A8-7600    G. Skill Ripjaws Z @1800 CAS 8     EVGA 500w 80+ PSU    Gigabyte GAF2A68HM-DS2H Motherboard

Yeah just get a big cheap HDD. Don't even worry about the RPM.
