more expensive though
get the 5TB black for bigger cache
God I hate neo /g/ I stop coming here but still check back and see stupid shit like this and remember why I stopped
Best for what OP? Theres different things different drives are good at, what do you mean by best? Best is objective anyways, oh my god kill your're self
FAEX is old and noisy.

had one wd black.
Died after 3 years.
I still have working 200gb seagate from 2004
There are far more pricey HDDs.
But I would recommend a SSD and a slower HDD for most.

What are you going to use it for? If it's for storage just go for the middle ground and get a blue. I snagged a 2TB for like 70 bucks.

Pretty sure any enterprise HGST drive is objectively better if you don't care about the noise.
Buy PCIe SSD and then buy the Green/Blue one

B-but HGST is WD
>>56060966
WD may own HGST but HGST still has the better HDDs. If you can't grasp such a simple concept you should probably stop coming to this site until you're old enough to.

What in the everliving fuck are you on about?
Good warranty, will perform the same as any other hdd, maybe slightly faster but you wont notice.
