Need a new Hard drive?

Internal vs External Hard drives and what to get:

When Selecting a new hard drive for your current computer there are a

few things to take into consideration such as:

a) How much space do I need?
b) Is it a SATA or IDE hard drive or the newest Solid State?
c) Do I need a new drive to back up my system (redundancy) or is it
storage for movies, documents, and games.
d) How much do I want to spend?

The internal hard drives can be IDE which uses a 40 pin cable. They are
3.5" for Regular computers or 2.5" for laptops.
SATA Drives uses one 8 pin cable. These are the replacements for IDE Drives.
They take less room and are substantially faster. From their conception
they have increased in speed (transfer) from 1.5 GB/s to 6.0GB/s for the
faster devices.

The newest kid in the block is the SSD drives. They are called Solid
State Hard drives because they have no moving parts. There are no
platters unlike its predecessors and its silent. I am keeping an
eye out for the prices to come down a bit and for these drives to become
more main stream and bigger in size. Nonethess they could be great to have your main operating system on it and a secondary/external drive to host your important files.
Take into consideration the type or style of pin connector on the hard drive before making a purchase in order to avoid delays and reorders.

Next, decide if speed is required for gaming, movies editing. If so, then get a hard drive that is 7200rpm or better. For storage 5400rpm would be ok to use. Bear in mind that the faster the drive the more expensive they will be.

Dont forget to check the reviews on the hard drives before purchase to become aware of any issues with them and to avoid the ones that could cause headaches down the road.
