Then the hard drive was getting fuller so i purchased a Western Digital (green) 2TB which i now use by itself, problem is the computer is noticeable slower now, if im copying then performing other tasks are ridiculously slow and unresponsive and of course copying is at least 50% slower also. It is advertised as a 7200 rpm hard drive with a 32mb cache (which i think is more than the first hard drive at 16mb cache) Why on earth would this new hard drive be slower, less responsive, and efficient.
