2 TB Internal HDD - WD or Seagate?

Hi,

I'm planning to get a 2 TB internal HDD for my PC.
Already OS is on a SSD, so this drive is for storage and games.
Have picked two models from WD and Seagate. But can't decide between them.

WD 2 TB Blue - WD20EZRZ - 5400 rpm
Seagate Barracuda 2 TB - ST2000DM006 - 7200 rpm

Both has a warranty of 2 years. My trust is more on WD than Seagate. (Had a failure with Seagate 1 TB before)
WD Black drives are way more costlier and out of my budget. Are they that good ?
Please help me decide.

Thanks in advance.

What's the price quote that you got for the Seagate one? The prices of both have now increased post GST.

As from Amazon.in
Seagate - Rs. 5999
WD - Rs. 5699

Price of Seagate was lower than WD yesterday, but now it's hiked :(

Planning to buy them in July 11th Amazon prime day offer. Will get 15% cashback.

Any idea which is better among these two ?

I would say WD, but since there is a considerable rpm difference wait for the experts to comment.
BTW 15% cashback on all purchases or any minimum cart value?

Minimum cart value is 5000 and cashback would come after 3 months (We'd have forgotten about it then :D ). Max cashback is 2K in whole.

Offer is only for Prime members and HDFC cardholders.
