i would like to get a high capacity drive
iam not sure which company makes the best
any advice ?
 
I always go with Seagate, or Western digital never had any real problems with either of them.
 
do you know what the specs of the 40gb hd in the ps3
i have a 40gb ps3 and iam wondering if i get either the wd or seagate 320gb 7200 16mb cache hd for it. Will i see a big speed increase in loading times and install times ?
 
No real thing as the best.

Just stick to a brand that you are comfortable with.

I've used Hitachi, WD, Seagate and Samsung.

The Hitachi and Seagate have failed while as the WD and Samsung are still running. They are all roughly the same age.

That being said, I would buy a Hitachi or Seagate again. It all depends on what is the best bang for buck at the time I am purchasing.

I've heard the new Samsung Spinpoint M6's are great. Check em out.
 
I just replaced all 3 320GB drives in my laptop with 3 new 500GB SAMSUNG Spinpoint M6 HM500LI SATA drives (I needed the extra capacity). I've been waiting for the Egg to finally get them in stock and when the showed up last week I immediately pulled the trigger. $149.99 apiece. I'll be RAID 5'ing the new ones and using the old ones to upgrade my wif'es laptop and as portable externalHD's in enclosures.
