I'm currently looking at hard drives for my new gaming rig, and for my budget of around $100 (spent all of my money on other components), I'm looking at two drives:
Hitachi 750g SATA 32mg cache 7200
WD 640g 16mg cache SATA 3.0mg 7200
Looking for reliability mainly. Only seems to be slight benefit to 32mgs cache. Never owned an Hitachi. Both are around the same price.
Can anyone recommend one or the other, or perhaps another brand in the 500-750g range? I'll probably add another drive (Raptor maybe) later when I can afford it.
Thanks very much...
