Go for Western Digital, it is the best perfomance drive with good support
yeah WD is good.. but it has 5400 RPM which will be little slow compare to 1TB
better you buy 1TB only.. and after 1 year or so.. you can go for more if required..
at that time new hard disks with greater performance and SATA 3 supported will be coming with less price..
think one more time.. (i think to fill 1TB it will take almost a year..)
WD Green drives had been giving problems recently, esp the EARS ones.
Also, they have been taking at least a month or 2 to provide replacements, that too after constant reminders.
They used to be so good and prompt earlier but in India, nothing good seems to last for long.
The only advantage they had was that they had 5 years warranty compared to 3 years for Seagate internal 7200.12 or LP but were priced higher than Seagate too.
But warranty on WD Green was dropped from 5 years to 3 years sometime back.
So they came on the same level with the WD being priced much higher.
Most people, even those who have bought WD GReen past 1-2 years, are buying the Seagate 2TB drives instead of WD 2TB green.
A few friends had picked up their 2TB Segates some weeks back and one paid Rs.5800/- while i heard that the other friend paid Rs.5500/- a few days later.
