Should I buy this HDD ?

Benliam12

I just saw that as an good offer on Newegg.CA I was wondering if it would be a good choise to pick this refurbished drive http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822236410&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL080816CA&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL080816CA-_-EMC-080816-Index-_-InternalHardDrives-_-22236410-L0C&_ga=1.150658166.1193724535.1463267321 (2TB) Or to get a 1TB drive for the same price but new. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840

 

This drive will only be use to save records of my games.

 

Tell me what should I chose :)

I'm not one for buying refurbished equipment but it has a 30 day replacement/return policy so if you really want to save money I'd say go for it.

If you don't really need the full 2TB, just go with a new 1TB drive for like 50 bucks.

if you can return it if its crap then do it if you cant then dont

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

As it does have 30 day return policy, it would a great deal. It's best to make sure if it works completely or not though.

But it's still your choice to make.
