Hitachi and Seagate are pretty much the same device

Just different casing and internal parts that are manufactured by different companies. I am off Hitachi forever after having the misfortune to own a Hitachi "death"star, which is one of the only drives to ever completely fair on me. I've got 3 normal Seagate drives in my PC, and that's what I use when I build PCs for people (for friends, it's not my job or anything)

The one that I posted is twice as big. I posted a link below to the identical drive, which is slightly cheaper on ebuyer
