Hey guys I need your help. I'm building a new rig and want to put a 2tb hard drive in it but don't need it to be velociraptor expensive. I just want a 2tb hard drive that will last me for some time and it won't die on me. I've read a ton of reviews on hard drives but a bunch of them have been dying too quick. I don't want to spend more than 200$ on a hard drive.

Any suggestions?
 
Hard drives are a craps shoot, like any other computer component.
I'm assuming the reviews you're reading are on Newegg, or whatever your preferred shopping site is. Just keep in mind that the people who bother to review are usually the ones who have an issue, not those for whom the drive works as intended.

If it is going to be your primary drive just make sure it is a 7200RPM drive with the largest cache (64MB).
 
Yeah thats what I figured. If I keep proper care of them and keep them reasonably cool I should be able to make them last for quite some time. Also thanks for the feedback.
