  These are WDs basically, HGST is owned by WD. Good drive, but if you wanna save even more money, the Toshiba 4TB is $189, but 64cache instead of 128.

    Yeah you're right.

    Also so are those Toshiba P300 from Amazon too are basically WD. They have a model name HDWD110 for 1TB, HDWD120 for 2TB, HDWD130 for 3TB and HDWD140 for 4TB. I believe HD stands for Hard Drive and WD stands for Western Digital. Basically made in Western Digital factory in China and branded Toshiba. Re-branded WD hard drives.

        HD = Hard Drive, WD = Western Digital. Toshiba hard drive branding was bought out years ago and and is owned by Western Digital and are manufactured in one of their WD manufacturing plants, the same goes for HGST. Basically if you are buying a modern Toshiba or HGST hard drive, you're buying a re-branded WD hard drive.

    Save money

    $189

    This drive is $6 cheaper and as you stated, has double the cache. How is the Toshiba a better choice exactly?

    Also, HGSTs are known for a generally lower failure rate among all the major manufacturers. They may be owned by WD but they're not the same.
