I built my dream machine and everything is very fast. (Still waiting for the correct retention clips for my CM V8 CPU cooler). Windows 7 scores everything on my machine a 7.4 except the hard drive which comes in at a 5.9. Here is what I currently have:
Newegg.com - Western Digital RE3 WD2502ABYS-01B7A0 250GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Should I just bite the bullet and go for the WD Black like I should have due to the $5.00 differance?
Newegg.com - Western Digital Caviar Black WD5001AALS 500GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
You guys think I will see much of a difference? I will not splurge on a raptor drive. I will wait till SSD's come down in price.
Everything is backed up to a 1.5T WD storage drive now so switching should be easy.
Thank you in advance,
DA
