Have you considered a Seagate Momentus XT?
I'm thinking about getting one of these.
Does anyone know how to get different versions of Windows to play nicely together?
I have Windows 8 on one side of a HD and Mountain Lion on another (it's a Hackintosh).
It was all working perfectly until I installed Windows 7 on a different disk. Now I get the Windows boot manager and when I try to run 8 it crashes.
This is despite the fact that when I installed Windows 7 onto the other disk I had the original disk unplugged, because I have had problems with multiple Windows installations before being 'co-dependent' - for ages my parents PC wouldn't start without the old HD in. To get round this I had to take that disc out and reinstall Windows with just the new drive in.
So as I had it unplugged it should be exactly the same, but it's not! And boot manager gives me a choice of Windows 7 or 8, even though 7 isn't plugged in.
How do Microsoft manage to be this shit? It's actually quite impressive.
Does anyone understand this crap?
