7200 RPM and SATA 3.0 or 6.0 GB/s, the Hitachi Deskstar or Seagate Barracuda or WD Caviar are all good drives I've used, I'm using this WD Caviar Black HD currently and the 1 TB drive is $120

When purchasing a hard drive, just get a larger drive, you can buy a 2Tb drive for a few bucks more and it'll ( for what you're going to use it for ) be much faster than a smaller 'enhanced' drive.

For instance, the new WLPH server I went with 2x 2TB drives in it instead of going with a 1TB Black drive because the data read and transfer speeds are faster on the 2TB because storage is more dense.

Also, spend the $100 or less and get a 64-128GB SSD drive. Its worth it.
