    New Hard Drive

    So here's the situation:
    I am slowly but surely gathering parts for a new build and have just been given £30.86 to put some music in one of my Youtube videos - I know right

    I already have a 64gb SSD (Crucial C300) and just want a good, fast hard drive.

    I've been thinking of this one - Today only for £30:
    http://www.scan.co.uk/products/500gb...-cache-8ms-oem

    500gb F3 7200rpm.

    Any other options? Obviously the bigger the better, but 500gb should suffice

    Thanks

    500GB and over, you're not going to see any appreciable difference between manufacturers, assuming you get a 7200rpm drive. Just get the cheapest.
