Hi guys, I'm going to buy a new internal HDD 2TB for my PC.I also want to buy an UPS for it.
Current Config is:
Intel i3 540
Intel DH55TC
Corsair VX450
2*2GB 1600MHz Corsair Ram
GTX 650 Ti 2GB
1 TB HDD
For HDD, I'm confused between Seagate and WD .For UPS,I'd heard microtek , numeric are crap. Please provide some suggestions for it.
 
you didn't mention your budget ... anyway, you can get a wd 2 tb black hdd at 10k and apc 1.1 jva ups at 5.5k.
 
WD Caviar Green 2 TB - energy saving, slow - rs6000 - 2yrs wty

WD Caviar Black 1TB - fast , a bit more heat generating - rs5700 - 5yrs wty
WD Caviar Black 2TB - rs9800

APC UPS is good. but it wont support many diesel gensets..
How long UPS backup is needed???

My budget isn't that much, I need both things in 8-9k max.
Also I think 1.1KVA for UPS is overkill , I just need a backup of around 10 minutes.

I just need a backup of around 10 minutes.Won't be going for WD Black reason being its cost.
Won't Seagate 2Tb be good?
 
yes go for Seagate.. and for ups get an apc 600va at 2.1k or see if you can get the 650va at 3.5k
