There are two hard drives im looking at and i just wanted to get your opinions on each of them. The main thing that im trying to decide is whether the 32mb cache is going to make that much of a difference than a 16mb cache.

The samsung one is here

The Seagate one is here

Get the samsung. I just bought that Seagate HDD from NewEgg and it has broken down twice so I have to keep sending it in for a free replacement. What a pain. the cache size does not seem to matter all that much. Unless you are emulating PS2 games on your PC like I do. Then it is the top priority. I use the emulator called PCSX2. It runs most PS2 games you throw at it with better definition than if you were using the console. HD PS2 gaming is possible with PCSX2.
