Someone has already asked this so please forgive me for asking again but would this be better or would shucking the WD 18tb elements be better? Just for home use inside of a normal PC, would this guy be too loud? I know it comes with a 5 year warranty instead of a 2 year for the WD. It seems like a no brainer right? What would you get if you had to decide between the two for hoarding movies and games and such in a PC that sits in the living room?
Personally I’d go for the 18TB WD. I trust WD as a brand more than Seagate these days, and I bought the 18TB last weekend and it’s not that loud in my opinion. Plus I was able to drive down to bestbuy and pick up the WD without having to worry about how it would be shipped (safely or not) to me.
