Ok but Bikey told me that none of the 2TB's are good for their word today and the total number of crashing 2TB's of Seagate is currently greater than WD's. So I skipped buying completely as the last 2TB Seagate LP was sold and I was left with only WD and that too @ 5100~4900 .

I only want a 2TB that does not give up on me for another 3yrs as it will be used as a storage HDD, it should be extremely reliable. Hitachi's have a good record in India as far as I can tell, but it's a nightmare for the rest of the world[overclockers.net]. The only good option that remains are Samsung HDDs but sadly they are lagging behind in the platters race w.r.t rest of the competition + lack of availability. So what real choice do we have as all the reviews even from good biggies like Anandtech/Xbitz etc.. only compare the performance parameters and are not able to suggest the reliability.

TIA.
