What HDD should i buy? I already have a SSD and i am scared that the 2 TB drive will be slow. Which one is the best?

That depends on what u wanna use the new drive for. If multimedia, the hdd will suffice. If running apps and games the ssdh is a better choice

Then hdd 4tb for a balance of storage/price. Maybe a 7200rpm model

I've been using an HGST 4 TB 7200 RPM drive for about 1.5 years, and I am quite happy with it, with about 176 MB/sec sequential reads/writes on CrystalDiskMark....(and they have fallen in price from $160 to $120 since I bought it, which is good for new buyers!)

I'd buy several more if I had an excuse to assemble a NAS...
