I have shortlisted a few external HDDs for myself. I will be going to Nehru Place tomorrow to buy one, so please recommend one for me :)

1. Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex 1TB 3.5’’ Black External Hard Drive
approx price = 3700

2. Western Digital My Book Essential 1TB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive (3.5")
approx price = 3800
Annoying software seems to be an issue for many; not fast?

3. Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex 2TB 3.5’’ USB 2.0 Black External Hard Drive
approx price = 6200
Seems quite solid; always on is a hassle; USB 3.0

4. Western Digital My Book Essential 2TB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive
approx price = 6900

5. Seagate Expansion 1TB 2.5" Portable External Hard Drive
approx price = 4000 (?)
USB powered; seems to have severe longevity problem

2 TB may be too much for me. My top 2 choices are options 1 and 2. Anyway, what do you guys think? Maybe you have a different and better idea, or I may have got the prices wrong. Please do reply :)

1 would be my choice.

I bought it the day before yesterday and am more than happy with it.

Getting around 22MBPS transfer speeds. You can be connect any internal hardisk using the detachable adaptor, USB3/eSATA "upgradability" option.
