Recommend a hdd?

[seumas_beathan]

I have a small budget, about 50 pounds.

I need a hard drive, not big just over 200 gb, it has to be 3gb/s

Could any on you recommend me one.

Thanks in advance

this is a laptop drive, will work just fine with your desktop though, wont get as hot as a 3.5" drive and wont make as much noise

Western Digital Caviar Blue series 7200 rpm 250gb sata 6gbps 16mb buffer
Get the OEM version if you can
no pretty box and sata cable but saves you money

I just got one today for $79.99 USD which I think is close to 50 pounds if I got it right

best deal I could find

actually here is on Amazon UK

Hey dude!
Oh well i didn't look at your 1st post.
Decent drive nonetheless.
500 GB F3 Spinpoint is a good deal.

 

[king smp]

actually I like your HD better Davcon
that is a great deal on a F3
best answer IMHO
