What HDD

Hi, could someone spec me a 1tb hdd please?, needs to be fast for gaming.

What's your budget? I would probably go for the Western Digital Black which is on offer this week.

Just as fast and much cheaper:

Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM

Ignore the fact that the WD Black is SATA 6Gb/s, it's irrelevant for mechanical HDD's.

+1 for the F3, mine is very fast for what it is

Thankyou, looks like the F3 then and as I had a budget of £80 think i'm gonna get two, fantastic price.

Yeah the F3 is better value than the WD Black
