Which HDD Should I get????

[nicbread]

Hi, Im doing a budget build and I'm Just Wondering Which HDD is faster, The Seagate Momentus 2.5 inch 750GB drive, or the Western Digital WD5000AAKX 500GB?? I'm buying them used so they're about the same price
Thanks in advance

You do realize the Seagate 2.5 Drive you listed is made for Notebook computers... It could technically work in a desktop but you would need a mounting bracket.

Here is a Seagate Barracuda 3.5":
500GB @ $40
750GB @ $59

If I were in your shoes I would get one of these depending on your budget. The price depends on what country your in. Buying used hard drives is buying someone else's problems and someone else's corrupted sectors. Either one is perfect for your needs. Plus you get a free game!
