What 2TB drive to buy for Dell OptiPlex 9020?

I have a Dell OptiPlex 9020 with a 1TB drive that I would like to replace with a 2TB drive - any suggestions on a solid, reasonably priced 2TB drive that is compatible with the OptiPlex 9020?

Thx

Seagate or Western Digital (WD) are the most popular. Honestly its like Mac vs Windows, you will have people chime in on what they like the best. Example I'm a Seagate person myself. Look at SSDs as well as they have really come down in price if you want a noticeable speed boost. Regardless, as long as its the correct size etc., you shouldn't have any issues with any brand.

Thx for the reply and info. Do I have to worry about the Optiplex motherboard not supporting a larger drive than 1 TB as the Optiplex I have is around 5 years old?

No, because these computers use UEFI bios so a hard drive bigger than 2tb would work fine.
