I just don't believe one can make solid statements (and be credible)

choice. You need a black, IMO, for video work.
Certainly not without a lot of data, and it's a statistic, so there
is a 1% failure across the line, and you're it, then it feels like
100%. That said, and based on my data (which is a lot of drives)
you'll get better reliability from WD (go Black), and their
replacement service is also top notch.

Finally took the plunge and ordered a new laptop. For the primary drive I
opted for the SSD drive and am planning on adding additional storage to the
other bay. I like the capacity of the 1TB WD and Samsung drives but a
second look at their performance has me looking at other drives.
In the 750G range there appears to be two 7200RPM options, the Seagate
Momentus and the Western Digital. I would like the drive to be fast
(doing video, audio and digital photo work) but it needs to be reliable
too. One of these rise above the other?
Thanks!
