Introduction
Hitachi hard drives (HDD) are used in many computers around the world. They have good reliability and this is combined with low product prices to create hard drives worth buying. What should I look for when buying a hard drive? Make sure that the hard drive you buy matches with the specifications required for your PC. Laptops require a physically smaller hard drive than desktops and therefore, are more expensive. There are also two types of connection for desktop SATA and IDE. Newer desktop PCs will almost certainly use SATA. There are also different hard drive speeds, 7500RPM is the fastest that will appear in most desktop PCs. The faster the RPM and the more cache the hard drive has, the more it will cost. The price will also be affected by the hard drive size. 500Gb hard drives are usually of a sufficient size for most people, but be sure to check first.
Where to buy
Amazon (Amazon.co.uk) With excellent prices and no shipping costs, Amazon is a great place to buy Hitachi products, especially hard drives. Not all items are sold directly from Amazon because they allow third parties to sell through their website. If this is the case with your item, always check the seller's feedback and postage costs before committing to a purchase. Ebay (Ebay.co.uk) Ebay is a great place to get good deals on Hitachi hard drives. It is recommended not to buy used hard drives though, as they may not have a very long life and you do not know what they previously have on them. Should you choose this option, make sure that you use a good utility format (Gutmann setting) to wipe the disk. Ebuyer (Ebuyer.com) Ebuyer is an excellent company from which you can buy hard drive. They have a large range of sizes available in different places. There are many reviews for the products and accurate descriptions to accompany them.
