I have recently purchased a pre-built gaming system, that was included with a 128gb SSD, and a 1TB drive for storage and program installation.
After installing a wide range of the games that I enjoy playing, I have come to the point where my drive is within 200GB of being full.
My question is; What is the largest, most reliable drive for cheap? And by cheap, I mean no more than $150, but more around 100-125 if possible… Every penny counts around here…
Since I have had plenty of experience in the past with Seagate, I have ultimately decided that I would like to stray away from their "green" drives, and their so called "affordable dives". Many of these HDDs have failed on me in the past, and seagate support was a nightmare. Telling me over the phone that my "green drive" was only going to be covered under a one time replacement, (because it failed within 6 months), at which I had to send it back to them, and wait for a refurbished replacement; paying shipping in the process. Of course, it was nice that they replaced it after a few hours of bickering; but, it did fail in less than 6 months just sitting on my desk as normal storage… Which usually isn't a good sign of a decent drive.
Either way guys, I've been looking for days for a correct drive, but can't get past the flood of seagate products… So please, let me know what you think…
Thanks, and can't wait to hear from you…
