Jessica Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 Looking to replace my current drive, seems lately i see a lot of 100% duty in task manager. Right now its at 100% and i am doing nothing so i am guessing it wither has some bad blocks or it is just starting to fail. I would like 1 to 2 TB and i think i should avoid the WD "Green" models. Maybe a barracuda drive? Any suggestions would be helpful. i used to keep up with hardware but i havent got the time anymore. Also, no SSD's please.

meade916 Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 No ssd? I can't suggest anything then...so i have nothing further. p.s. don't waste your money, get an SSD. THERE I SAID IT. lol It's the best investment you can make for a computer (that doesn't have one). It will also show almost the best performance gain of anything you can currently do. It will probably last longer too with no moving parts.

Jessica Posted November 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 if i get an SSD what would you recommend for under $200. Is intel still the best? I would like 512GB but i could settle for 256GB Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside. My super random youtube channel and terrible camera work.

Krakin Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 840 EVO is an amazing SSD. The 850 Pro is an insane drive as well. I haven't looked lately, but I think I'm going to go for a second if they go on sale for black Friday. Krakin's Home Dipole Project http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/186153-krakins-dipole-project-new-reciever-in-rockford-science/#entry2772370 Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist? I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . . What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself but what has drawn your attention in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears, thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.
