News - Western Digital back as leading HDD maker

[bill hicks]

Wow, I've missed those mergers last year. Bit annoying because I really liked Samsung's 5400RPM drive for quiet mass storage while Seagate failed to impress me. Well, I do hold the WD Green drive to roughly the same regard as the Samsung, but they tended to be a touch more expensive.

Same here, I've had two seagate's fail on me in recent years, one just recently & I replaced it with a sammy. Oop's.
Thanks for the info all.

But you can buy a 3TB drive for under £110 - albeit Seagate.

Sure, but I bought one for £79 last year
