Gary,
Understand that money is tight; for all of us. $170 for 750GB is a buy
for me.
Considering that my 'surveillance' class 500GB drives now price a $235.
I still shudder about the $400-$800 I paid in the past for 80-160GB drives.
Fine. Stupid me! But all of my current drives are many years past their
warranty
and still opnorml!

The WD looks nice, I see NewEgg has the 750G refurb for $99. Nice price
but I am not sure what to expect with a refurb. The new one is $169.99 so
I suspect a lot of people might think twice about a refurb hard drive....

I just don't believe one can make solid statements (and be credible) about
the reliability of hard drives...but for me the WD is a good choice. You
need a black, IMO, for video work.

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!
