Is the Hitachi or Western Digital a better drive?
Can a second harddrive be added rather than increasing the size of the original?
Is the Hitachi or Western Digital drives of equal quality or is one considered better?
Is this a good question?

I like the Western Digitals. A second drive can be installed by removing the optical drive and putting in an optical bay hard drive enclosure: [linked product missing or disabled: IF107-079]

I too prefer WD +
Same here.
i prefer WD
Have seen many more problems with Hitachi drives.
I have not used WD as of yet, but I have had great luck with Hitachi drives. I've had mine for over a year and haven't had as much as an error from the drive. If you Google Hitachi drives, you will see positive reviews and comments from many people concerning these drives. I read posts of people having these drives for over three years with no signs of problems. I recently upgraded to a 7200RPM Hitachi drive and I love it. It's nearly silent, no vibration, and my Macbook's temp has not risen. Just my opinion, I haven't tried WD drives yet, but I I'm happy with both Hitachi drives I have. Do some research before buying.

+ My opinion of the Hitachi drives has been formed over years. I admit I have seen a lot more of the 2.5" drives fail than the 3.5".
I haven't used western digital yet, but i have Hitachi hard drive now and i love it. so i recommend Hitachi hard drives. Or if you want you can try western digital which i heard was also pretty good. But i do prefer Hitachi.
