Hi People quick question.
I’m about to get a hard drive for a new build and was after something fast with 500gb of storage.
Was all set to get a WD caviar 16mb but then recived an email about the Seagate Barracuda 32mb cache. The WD is £62.29 and barracuda £70.50 so not a massive price difference just wondering which is the better deal and does the 32mb cache give the barracuda an edge on the caviar? You do get 2 years more warranty with seagate which is nice.
