Need help on HDD & SSD

Hi TDF,

Need help in upgrade on HDD and pls suggest a SSD. My signature is the Current system spec

Budget=10-12k

HDD, which is better? WD Blue WD10EZEX 1 TB / Seagate Barracuda 1 TB (ST1000DM003)

SSD, i thought of Kingston 120GB or Samsung 840 EVO 120GB

Thanks

get Samsung Evo 850 128GB ~ 5k and
WD Black 1TB ~ 5k

if storage is your need, get WD Green 2TB ~ 5.5k

Thanks.

If you are already getting an SSD, why not go for a WD Caviar Green HDD instead ? The extra silence,power saving features, economy, price, etc is worth it.
Use SSD for main partition and to put frequently played games, while your remaining crap like music,movies,torrents and stuffs can go in the low power silent WD Green HDD

^Because WD Green has the worst failure rates among all WD drives.. If you get a blue for a little bit extra, why not go for it ?

that power saver only slows the HDD down. WD Green is good for space per rupee. also he has a good budget so why not go for it?

Hi mikael_schiffer,

I am glad to help you out. For more information about WD internal HDD, I would like to add some word in it. We all are aware that each of WD HDD has different specification for use. The WD Blue is use of normal computing, daily use drives, solid performance and budget drive. WD Blue models are available from 250GB to 1TB. The WD Green has preferred for data storage, backup, save power and quiet environment. WD Green models are available from 500GB to 6TB.

The following colors describe the specifications for WD HDD.

WD Blue = Solid performance.
WD Blue | Desktop 3.5-inch Hard Drives .

WD Green = Energy saving , backups and storage use.
WD Green | Desktop 3.5-inch Hard Drives .

Good luck.

Hi rijinpk1 and adityak469,

I'll relay this question to the relevant people in the company. I'm kind of curious myself too.
