HDD upgrade?

[BloodyWaters]

So I have this 300 Gb drive in my system. It's great and all, still runs fine, but I'm running out of space fast. I'm planning to add another drive, or even replace the one I have now. What should I do? I need a good balance between speed and storage. My budget is about 60-70 USD. Any ideas? I will check this tomorrow.

If you've only got 300GB and that much USD, go for a 1TB HDD, or 2TB if you can fit it in.

 

Western Digital is usually a pretty safe company to go with if you have no idea, but if you can find other (decent) hard drives with more capacity, go for those.

Yeah, that budget is 1TB, maybe 2TB if there is a sale.

newegg just had seagate barracuda 3tb drives on sale for like $70... you can get a good 2tb drive though https://pcpartpicker.com/product/CbL7YJ/seagate-barracuda-2tb-35-7200rpm-internal-hard-drive-st2000dm006

I'd recommend getting it. Pretty sure they're usually like $75

Here is a drive that is 7200rpm (fastish) and 2tb that is within your price range.
