Silent HDD ?

[MrAnagaM]

Hey so I am look for a super quiet HDD 3 or 4TB
I use it mainly for gaming, I have ni interest in getting as SSD because a 3TB SSD its super expensive

What about a smaller SSD (250 or 500) for your main programs/OS drive, then another 2-3TB HDD for your other data needs?

Seagate barracuda or WD blue. (5400rpm for both)

From what I have seen the WD Black is noisy.

wd black isnt that noisy,but go for the blue if a few decibles concern you.the wd blue is not a 5400rpm drive but,rather,a 7200 rpm drive.having a 5400 rpm drive is not at all what you want.

I decided to go for wd purple which is apparently the most silent HDD there is and handles heavy loads because it supposed to handle 24hrs work loud
