this is about internal HD. new or used i want to buy.
I'm looking to buy 1Tb WD green, its performing amazing for past couple of years to me. When i look in marketplace this looks like extinct as dinosaur. or very exorbitant pricing. https://www.amazon.in/Caviar-Green-Desktop-Internal-WD10EZRX/dp/B00769WETS/
earlier it was only 3 type, green, blue and black - straight forward.
now what i can see is, even the blue drives can't match the performance of previous green drive.
and lots of other name-tags, RED, Purpule, gold, etc with no clear comparison provided.
looks like WD green is re-branded as WD blue these days.
I am looking to by a 1TB (any VFM capacity) a silent drive with low power consumption. on SATA 3 or 6 interface. looking for read/write speed of 60mbps+
does not necessary have to be WD, but looking for budget option, mostly be used for storing photo RAW files and editing.
Please suggest.
