    I've never had trouble with Samsung drives. As you pointed out they are slightly faster and have always been reliable for me.

    I use the 1.5TB version of the Samsung F2 (which that badly rebadged 2TB F£ is based on. Good quiet drive - I've bought over a dozen samsung HDDs, had one go nutso on me but that's it.
