Hi there

I am looking to swap the drives of my capture laptop for an HDD (so far been using an SSD for capture, not ideal).

The Laptop has an NVMe slot (for OS drive) and 2.5 slot (for capture). So I am looking for a good 1-2TB drive to put in there, that is reliable enough.

Any particular suggestions when it comes to picking a drive for capture?

I have my eyes on mainstream drives like Seagate BarraCuda, and a WD blue and black, but I am open to other suggestions if they have a particular advantage.

Thanks

2tb Seagate, WD Blue or Black, you're looking at good drives.

For me, it's also about drive noise. The Toshiba 2tb drives are also good, I often use those.
