Can't make up my mind, need some input which to buy Seagate SATA 200GB or Western Digital SATA 200GB.

thanks

the seagate drive would be my preference for now, that is if your power supply has native sata power connectors or if you dont mind using a converter.

The WDs are OK too. Just get whatever is cheaper.

I use a WD 200gig SATA drive for storage. Has worked fine. Though if you go to StorageReview you can get much more detailed info

Western Digital SATA 200GB

I bought this two weeks ago for my PC and it's great. That is not to say that the Seagate isn't a good drive as well, but I can say the WD is for sure.

I just got a maxtor 120 sata drive about a month ago and it has worked flawlessly. It has a 3 year warranty also. Just go to newegg and find the model that is cheaper.

I have a 200GB-SE IDE WD drive I know they are reliable and have good tech support but the drive is noisy, thought SATA segate is quieter.

I love my Seagates....

Seagate hands down. I used to have an 80GB WD drive, and that thing is so annoying. Loudest hard drive I've ever owned. Plus I hear the seagates have 100GB platters now, so seagate hands down!

Suposedly the only True SATA drive right now is a seagate anyways. The others are just standard ATA with a conversion chip on them and they still have the old ide jumpers on the drive that you set.
