Hard drive for gaming

[fangeltim]

Hello.

I am looking to buy a new hard drive for gaming purposes and I don't really know that much about hard drives.

Is this hard drive good for gaming Western Digital Black WD1003FZEX 1TB
if not please recommend a good one that is not too pricey.

If you can recommend a good hard drive with a little more storage that is still good for gaming purposes that would be great

The WD black is a great performing drive, although it is a bit pricey for the 1Tb model - there is a good deal on the 2Tb firecuda for $90, which is not that much more over the WD Black 1Tb and you get a bit of performance benefit with the hybrid drive's massive cache.

Thank you very much, this will definitely help

BTW do you think it can fit in a NZXT S340 case?
