Seagate 3TB

[Sylver]

The Green Caviar? Low RPMs and therefore lower power consumption, it is cooler than for example its superiors (Caviar Blue & Black) and also quieter. It is what is called an ideal disk for storage.

Best regards

But my pc will be for gaming and low RPMs are not good at all, I need more the better.

I have a 7200 RPM drive and it has worked perfectly for a long time.

The noise does not bother me, I almost always use headphones, besides they do not make that much noise

[Sylver]

Well, it starts by saying what you want it for, I thought you wanted it for storage.

In that case, as I told you, the best option is an SSD. Zero access times and superior performance for games and all types of programs, it's nothing like mechanical disks, it's another level. If you're not ready to make the jump to an SSD yet, you can always put a Seagate normal of 7200rpm and run, they are decent.

The Caviar Black as internal ones give better performance, in that they are fast but make more noise and get hotter. If those last details don't bother you as you commented, you can go for a Caviar Black.

Sylver in post 545167 recommends certain things to you.

if you want many revolutions, your drive is this one;D

and if you want it to be for data this one, but it is a little slower ;D

HAHA but how do you place the cutter? won't it break the motherboard? xD
Hey but I'm not looking for a 200 euro disk xD
For now I'll get this one that seems pretty decent from the comments:
WD Caviar Black 1TB SATA3 64MB WD1002FAEX Hard Drive

@Sylver:

That's up to you. For the main drive, an SSD is recommended, and for data, an internal (or external) like the Caviar Green that save a lot of energy.

if you only plan to have one hard drive ….. a black
the ideal is to have two hard drives, one for the OS and some games, and another for data
greetings
about the price, I think you've never commented on the budget and as you said you wanted a lot of RPM

[MaxLG]

The budget is a maximum of 900 for my computer, so I cut where I can.
For now I want a robust internal hard drive and then I'll get external ones.

With 7500 RPMs I'm already fine, with more RPMs it's not worth it, they consume a lot, they overheat and then they melt xD

[Sylver]

I suppose you mean 7200 rpm, because I don't know of any 7500 rpm disks... :ugly:
And as I say, hard drives now fail more easily than in the past, the rpm doesn't matter much, the disk that spins at 10,000 rpm is prepared to withstand them logically, it may fail under warranty just like it does at 8 years, when it has to fail it will fail.

I reiterate that for the system and games/programs, the best option is to invest in an SSD, and have another robust drive for data (or more than one). There is no comparison. But if you prefer to stick with internal ones, get the Seagate or the Caviar Black.

But an SSD is very expensive for the few GB it has, I can't spend that much for so little.
Besides, it's a pain because you have to transfer data internally because there are things that only work with the internal drive etc etc etc xD

you can put an SSD and a hard drive like the ones you've been looking at as internal ones (both at the same time).
if you have a low budget and want to cut somewhere, not putting the SSD is one of the worst things you can do, since it's the part where you'll notice the most difference in performance.

[MaxLG]

But I'm going to use very heavy games,
Also I don't know what problem a lifetime hard drive has, I have a mediocre computer with an i3, gt 630 and a 1TB hard drive and I can play BF3 or any game with graphics almost at maximum and I've never had performance problems.
By heavy I mean they take up a lot

Ademas luego es un conyazo porque tienes que apsar datos al interno porque hay cosas que solo funcioanan con el disco interno etc etc etc xD

Por curiosidad, dime alguna.

COn el arma 2 tuve muchos problemas para redireccionar el juego al MOd dayz(pirata).

Uno de varios problemas que he tenido, al pasarlo al interno se soluciono.

El silent hunter 3 tambien tuve problemas porque no encontrava la carpeta, solucion? pasarlo al disco interno

Si lo digo es por algo hombre! no me lo invento porque me sale de alli xD

No he dicho nada de eso, sólo te lo preguntaba porque no tengo constancia de ninguna incompatibilidad o problema de ningún programa o juego con un SSD como unidad principal.

@MaxLG:

Pero voy a usar juegos muy pesados,
Ademas no se que problema tiene uno disco duro de toda la vida, yo tengo un equipo mediocre con un i3, gt 630 y un disco duro de 1TB y puedo jugar al BF3 o cualquier juego con los graficos casi al maximo y nunca he tenido problemas de rendimiento.
COn pesados quiero decir que ocupan mucho

si si :facepalm:

Con SDD en concreto ninguno, o no lo se porque nunca he tenido ninguno ni meha hecho falta hasta ahora.

Yo lo digo porque hay pocas GB para ser un DIsco duro interno y al final estara lleno, con lo cual tendre que recurrir a un disco externo y ya se me montara el follon que he dicho antes.

lo repetiremos una vez mas y creo que sera la ultima respuesta que yo te de en cualquier post .
un SSD para el S.O y uno o dos juegos
un disco Green para almacenamiento ( vídeos, música ,datos ,etc )

en el caso que esta configuración no te guste :
un RAID 0+1 o un RAID 0 mas disco para copias de seguridad ( automático /manual )

P.D si con 900 euretes no te da para montar un PC para juegos con un SSD apaga y vamonos .

Si no tienes mucho presupuesto para un SSD yo buscaría un Barracuda 14 o similar. Aun así un SSD hoy tampoco es caro, pero es recomendable buscar de 256GB para que quepan varios juegos. No hay problema para instalar un juego en un disco externo pero después de instalar no puedes cambiar la ubicación o la letra del disco sino no lo encontrará. Los discos internos con el ahorro de energía se paran. El rendimiento gráfico dentro de un juego no tiene nada que ver con el disco duro, solo los tiempos de carga; en el resto del sistema tanto el arranque como la carga de cualquier aplicación o el trabajo con archivos sí. Con una 630 no creo que logres jugar al BF3 casi al máximo.

Con un poco de OC

OK mirare discos SSD, pero no estoy seguro de comprarlo

dices que con un disco duro"de toda la vida" nunca has tenido problemas de rendimiento, y digo yo… como sabes que no has tenido problemas de rendimiento si nunca has tenido un ssd?
