    Hey!

    Western Digital is the best hard drive manufacturer around. I've bought many drives from them and they all work great. There the top sellers on many sites such as www.newegg.com or www.amazon.com.

    Here's a few drives you might like:

    Hope I helped!

    Brand is not important - they are external devices, connected through USB so rotation speed is also not an issue.

    I would just go for the biggest you can afford - in this case... Size IS important !

    cuando mi ordenador ha tenido un accidente no sabía si valía la pena cambiarle el hard disk o comprar otro nuevo, he tenido mucha suerte con amazon, he encontrado el producto perfecto, un transporte rápido y mi portátil funciona otra vez y mejor que antes porque el hard disk tiene una mejor velocidad de respuesta.
