Hi guys,
With the new rig that I'm in the process of getting together, I'll need storage.
Mainly because my second SATA HDD (a long and trusted Seagate) died on my a week or two back).

I'm looking at both Seagate and Western Digital at the moment. I don't mind which I get, I just need to know what would be the best?

I'd be putting XP / Windows 7 on it and it being used MAINLY as a gaming pc. I've looked at the VelociRAPTOR series from WD but seem a bit pricey.

[WD Caviar Green] - £82/1.5Tb
[WD Caviar Black] - £75/1Tb
[WD Caviar] - £45/500gb
[WD Caviar Black SATAII] - £75/1Tb

I really am stuck, I could keep listing HDD's all night! Don't forget I have £20 off the price. I dont know whether to get 2x 500gb's or 1x 1Tb. :(

Any help is much appreciated.. Thanks.

Cheers, Rhys

Thanks, I don't want to make people think that I'm only limited to those four choices that I posted above. I'm open to anything.
I still can't make up my mind as to what size drive I'd prefer/want...
