New Drive for OS

Love me some Hitachi. I have 3 of the 500GB drives between my systems...

What's the manufacture date between the two? If you have one made before the flood, I'd go that way.

So I did not get an SSD but instead still have my SATA

Which Drive would be better to put my OS (cloning to new hard drives)

Hitachi 1 TB 7200 RPm 32mb Drive

or
Seagate 1.5 TB 7200 RPM drive

Still better to get a SSD for the OS drive, much better.
You sure you won't reconsider ?

WD makes hitachi now, in case that factors into your decision, but there isn't much difference speed wise between those two drives, at least nothing you would notice outside a benchmark.
Did I mention SSD for OS is better ? 😉
 
The Hitachi is pre- WD, were it me, I would go with the Hitachi and make it my system drive... and whatever program files would fit on it... 1TB is a lot of space. Make an image of the newly setup disk to one of the other disks and you have a viable backup system.
