the majority of pre-builts comes with shitty, cheap HDD. hence you know shit in this catagory

 

You're calling WD shitty? I've had 2 seagates and they both failed within a year. My WD of equal price runs faster and quieter.

Well, based on your above statement, you really don't know anything in this category.

 

I've been reading reviews after review about hard drive, since I am planning to get a 1TB drive, and based on what I know, Samsung and WD are top.

 

Just because a certain component is available in a rebuilt doesn't make it "shit". My computer came with an E8400, does that make Intel "shit"? My friends computer came with a HD 4870, does that make ATI "shit"?

Akaru: seriously man, Tink saying something like that suprises you still?

 

Doesn't surprise me. I just don't like to be wrong. I also hate when false information is given to people who don't know very much about the topic. If I ask for help, I'd expect a truthful answer.

sorry about this post. i honestly dont know where it came from, i had a bit to drink and then i had a shitty phone call, so i am sorry for my out burst.

i wasnt calling WD shitty, i have 2 WD 1 Seagate and a samsung. the 2 WD drives have lasted me 7 years and there still upto the task. its like with any computer components, you get what you pay for. i was trying to get across, dont just go for the Price Per GB.

no, im sorry Akaru, it was a bit harsh for me to say that, but pre-builts often save money on some key components that money shouldnt really be save, for instance they might put a no-brand PSU in, Cheap Motherboard. areas where money should be spent, but then they have all the Key components to say "Im A Good Computer" i was not at all saying that every single component in a prebuilt is shit. you just twisted my words.

 

 

Well everyone's already said Seagate/WD so I'll just throw out one last trivia tidbit: Maxtor hdd's make music when they die.

 

ive also had a bad experience with a maxtor HDD. one to avoid imo

Just bought a Western Digital external Hard Drive - 2 terrabyte, thing runs so fast w. Fire Wire, looks really sweet when it's sending/receiving information!!

It's also the world edition, bring it anywhere I'd like, have bluetooth enabled sharing, wireless internet, Ethernet hook ups, USB I could keep on going!!

My prof's have been recommending this brand for years @ my schools!

10/10!!
