I like Seagate when it comes to Hard Disks.. I presently use 2 hard disks. Obviously, one as primary and the other as slave. My Seagate had problems already and so I made it secondary. And then bought a Samsung 80GB and now, I have problems with Booting, coz the Hard Disk has Bad Sectors, though 2 years have passed since purchase.. :)

Both are Good.. Western Digital (WD) is a new comer yet rocks in Storage!!

My Preference
1. Segate
2. WD
3. Samsung

Happy MyLotting..

I have used both western digital and Samsung hard disk. When I was using a normal ide hard disk then I bought a Samsung hard disk and it worked well and then when I was looking for a sata hard disk I got a western digital hard disk and both are very good and reliable. Well yes he western digital hard disk I think is a bit delicate then Samsung as one of my friend got a problem as he use to shift his computer, so his reader started to make sound and they computer use to restart. But I never faced such a problem with western digital. And about Samsung, well now I use the 120 gb hdd as a usb drive and it never caused any problem. So personally I am happy with both, but still if you ask me I may prefer Samsung as it is widely available and service center is very near to my house.

Seagate is my first choice while thinking to go for Hard Disk Drive.I have so far used 2 Desktop PC and both has Seagate HDD.I have not yet faced any problems so far.No problem of bad sectors of any booting difficulties.Many of my friends using Samsung HDD has problems.Regarding Western Digital,I would buy this brand soon.

Still Seagate is the most widely use HD. Happy Mylotting!

I'm using Seagate but my other Seagate mysterious stopped working. It won't install Windows no matter how hard i tried. I always get this "Inset Boot Disk" error. I don't know how it happened. It formatted well .

Had you formatted your HD and installed fresh copy of your OS in it?

I'm pretty loyal to Seagate ever since. It has been pretty stable for me and I haven't had a failed hard drive as of yet. Might be just dumb luck, but then again, I'm not going to mess with that type of luck that I have by choosing another brand.


myLot reputation of 99/100. n30wing (2082)   ranked 724 out of 6,367 in computer  4 years ago

Seagate is still the brand to use when it comes to HD because it is the brand that most of us knew. Seagate is as history as with computers. Good Day!
