[QUOTE="DavidLMO, post: 701343, member: 68644"] I have used Western Digital drives for several decades. While to some it is personal preference :-) Check the Reliability link above. FWIW, my first was a $3,000 40 MB installed on an IBM AT. I currently use an older 1 TB external. If your machine has USB 3 port - be sure to get a 3.0 USB HD. If not, you can get a card real cheap to add 3.0 ports. Much faster than 2.0. [/QUOTE]
