^^ Well worded.

Not all TB hard drives are created equal, all that it means is that they hold at least 1 TB of space; Manufacturer has a huge influence on quality. I highly recommend dual booting Ubuntu (Linux) along with Win 7, if it comes with it, because you can recover a forgotten or lost admin password with it. I've had to do it once or twice. I have no clue if you can still due this with Windows 8 (Which I despise, but that's just my opinion).
