Picked up one of the WD 2TB drives from Game. Pretty awesome, especially at the price.

Me too! Had awful experience with Kalahari.com and after a month of hassling I thought screw it, got the one at game and happy so far!

I would go for the 500GB if it's intended as an internal drive since it's 7200RPM and
the WD Green is not. If you just need storage space, the 750GB is fine, but if you're
going to load an OS to it, definitely go for the 500GB.

Seagate has best reputation for not crashing.friend had a strange glitch with a WD HDD before and i have had trouble too.so i only buy seagate

 

[BigBear]

Seagate 7200rpm 500GB ?
Could possibly get a 1TB for around the same price..
Is this for storage or primary OS drive ?

 

[Shake&Bake]

Should be renamed the HDD Specials Thread

 

[Sharkie 187]

JIp..it's a good choice and price imho

 

[sajunky]

Seagate has best reputation for not crashing.[...]i only buy seagate

Not anymore. Warranty time cuts reflect what happened with Seagate.
