Should I go for WD 2TB Caviar Black?

R

Hey Guys,
So I've got a 1TB Caviar Green currently, which is probably the bottleneck to my overall system rating (5.9), Nevertheless I wanted to upgrade to 2TB so thought this time I should go for 2TB Caviar black, are there any better alternatives? Or should I really just stick to my 1TB Green and just get another external hard drive, although I feel its a lot of trouble backing up the data and I hate deleting stuff and my 1TB is always on the brink of the bottle these days.
Let me know your advices guys.

Thanks!

First of all, WEI (windows experience index) is a crap rating system, strictly advised not to follow.

Coming to your HDD, I'd personally suggest you to go for WD blue or even green (better get an external HDD), plus a 120 gb SSD. This would greatly boost your system performance along with less space issue.

^ agree, normal hard disk + ssd is way better than one expensive fast hard disk. And the only way you'll feel the speed is going to be the os and games load up time, so I suggest you to get 2 TB hard disk + 120 GB ssd.

You guys are probably right, but SSD's do cost a hell alot, and maybe I forgot to mention it but I do have budget restriction here. How about this, I already have a 1TB Caviar Green, I'll get a 1TB external and a 64 GB OCZ agility 3?

Caviar greens are slow and unreliable, WD Black happens to be the most reliable and fastest drive now a days, also 5yrs warranty, but the 2TB version sells for waay too much, get the 1TB black(make sure to get the 1002FAEX) and a small SSD, like 120GB, should be around 12k for the entire setup.

No 64GB SSD, never. Opt for at least 120GB. And yeah, prefer blue over green.

Well I will advice to go with 2TB Black. You'll get nice performance+reliability. Yes it won't come near SSD but you'll get space.
