Hi guys, i want to know if buying a 1T harddrive with 64 mb cahce, 7200 rpm, sata 6gb, is a good buy. Is a lower or higher cache better for gaming. Thanks.

cache size ont he HDD won't make a difference when gaming since none of the files will already be in the cache.

But normally, more is better and is not noticeable on a user level as long as you have enough; but too little is much worse and is something you will notice.

I doubt there are any drives with "too little" these days.
