Which HDD for Storage?

[ChrisByatt]

Ok, so I've got my build and I've put in a 120gb kingston hyper 3k for boot & most used games/software and a 1tb WD caviar black for other games/software.

Now I'm looking around for a large capacity fairly cheap HDD for storage of pictures, music, films etc. Looking at 2-4tb. Wondering what you guys think? I've been mostly looking at seagate SSHDs and HDDs but I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks guys

Caviar green.

Why that over a sshd with NAND caching? Or even the cheaper seagate barracuda?

My department uses about 300 hard disks a year and we only use Hitachi and Western Digital. So far we're liking Intel SSDs and wouldn't feel the need to try another brand, such is the quality of them.

Thanks I've gone for a 3tb wd green - and might get a second if it's cheap enough haha. Although i think I'm running out of sata ports with my dvd and blu ray drive too.. I definitely don't have any 6gb/s left...
