Okay thanks!

Acer use Hitachi hdd, should be quite good, right? But I heard wd acquired Hitachi now. True or not?

make HDD not hitachi main business rite...

List of current hard disk drive manufacturers:

-Seagate Technology, including its subsidiary brands Maxtor and Samsung
-Toshiba
-Western Digital, including its subsidiary brand HGST

HSGT WD 1 ah... quality so so only.. i claim 3 units this month already

What is the best?

Please. If you never used them at all, stop commenting.

Acer and Asus are not that far apart in term of quality. Besides Acer got decent support service center in USJ. I sent my W4 in for screen replacement. Was told a week, called me up the next day to pick up. Asus? Dream on.

They all drop like flies. Nowadays very hard to find hdd with good speed and being durable. The one which I had in my stolen Toshiba laptop was pretty good with shock protection but it was so so when it comes to speed. The only HDD I never had any failure on was WD Black. Really need to pay double to get peace of mind. Green and Blue are like rejects quality nowadays.

I used to prefer SSD until I had a failure last year. Luckily I did a backup a week before so was not too badly affected. Then only I found out that SSD does that when you had too many power outage. I had my battery unplug since Im using them in office primarily. Never ever figure that power outage could kill SSD.

My old PC with a Seagate HDD just died, that's why I'm looking to buy a laptop. It lasted 4 years and a trip down to kl from Penang though hahahah.

in fact, it is really depend on what is your usage and purpose. there is no point to buy a laptop that can't fulfill your requirements.

Both fulfil my needs. It's just a matter of which.

Build quality wise I would say it's good for me. It's up to personal preference & of course cannot expect as much as to have metal housing for a RM1700 notebook.

i got use acer before but the quality not so good because in a year send in for warranty 2 time.

for me I had 2 models - one is low end laptop bought in 2009 (abt rm1500) and another ultrabook (abt rm4000 at launch)

both still working until today without issues.

My past experience + college mates with Acer few years back was horrible. Main issue being heat problems. I avoid Acer at all costs since then.

Asus was fine with me. A laptop of almost 7 years only died recently, no problem to it. I bought another Asus afterwards.

Asus build quality and reliability is not bad but WARRANTY ITS tHE WORSEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
