Hi,

What would be the best drive to go into my Icy Box Enclosure and also into a media player enclosure?

This one?

Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 500GB ST3500630A ATA-100 16MB Cache - OEM

I would also consider a 400GB one -maybe this?

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Guys,

Thanks for your input. I already have 2x 300GB DiamondMax 10 installed. The 3rd drive is going to be swapped between the two devices listed above.

In the end i've gone for this one:

Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 400GB ST3400620A ATA-100 16MB Cache - OEM

The reasons - 400GB should be enough for now plus it was £40 quid cheaper
