I need to buy a new harddrive for my game installs but am not sure if am going buy a 1.5TB or 2TB drive yet as am still looking at the price vs speed vs value of each drive..

Which 1.5TB & 2TB harddrives do you guys recommend ???
Needs to be fast & cheap as possible ;)

I ended up ordering just a Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB today....


I really wanted a fast 2TB drive something like the Western Digital Caviar Black 2TB 64MB Cache harddrive but i wasn't going pay £200+ for one..
 
ive just got a seagate 1.5TB 7200.11 drive and gonna get a WD green 1.5TB later, i only use them for storing dvds/music etc so dont need fast ones and decided 1.5tbs are cheaper per TB than 2TB drives, gonna run my OS from the WD VR 300GB when it comes
 
im RMA'ing a seagate 1.5tb drive, as it has some non critical issues (it doesnt always work/detect on pc startup, and it clunks and pauses, annoying in games when it keeps freezing every 5mins :\ ). so I dont really want to get another seagoat :x

as itll be for games, I guess i want low idle/spin noise, 7200rpm, and it not to cost a lot per GB xD
