Seagate, all the way.

Look around the web for better prices though.

Heard there were serious problems with it and the ASUS A8N-SLI

Dont have any positive advice but I do have to say something negative here.

=NOT= the WD Caviar SATA 250GB.

I bought two of these because they looked so good.
The first one died in a month.
The second in about 5 months.


AVOID THEM.

I would have to recommend the seagate 16 MB 250 GB SATA. Good quality and company. Seagates are well know for there quietness and performance.The 16MB cache will give it a good performance boost as well.

Because Maxtor makes garbage, that's why.

Hehe, I've had one for a month and another for five - no problems!

WD makes the best hard drives with Seagate right behind them.

Somebody link me up with a Samsung Deskstar. Don't make me have to get one from ebay! :shocked:

Hmm Never heard about that. I have had great luck with Maxtor and also if I have a problem the send me a new drive overnight.

Western Digital is all I have in my computers. Haven't had one fail yet.

The sweet spot for cheap drives now is 200GB drive, get that instead.

SEGATE is one of the best and also one of the quiest HDD on the market.

Can't beat the 5 year waranty on the seagates right now, plus they are pretty quiet and reliable.

i have the a8n-sli and this drive. if you dont touch the bios, you'll be fine...(at least i am). asus is supposed to fix this..or maxtor is supposed to update the sata boot rom. this is a great drive...
