Best budget drive

[shivang222]

what would be the best budget hard drive?
i would like about 250gb of space...

my primary drive is a western digital raptor x 150gb, so should i get another western digital drive?

are you partial to any drive makers at this point? also, what IS your budget? you can get some high capacity drives for around a hundred bucks most anyplace.

Get a Hitachi T7K500. They're fast and cheap.

500gb drives are most cost effictive right now, i would go with wd5000aaks, fast, quiet & cool.
