Storage Solutions 3TB drives availability and price at nehru place?

[ahit]

I need bigger than 2TB drive for data backup and I think drives aren't made in 2.5TB spec,so I need to settle with 3TB ones.

I checked at flip-kart and there they have quoted a price of around 8500/- for WD green , is this same at nehru place too?

^I checked that price list but i didnt mention 3TB price,I need to know nehru place price so that i can decide if local,online or nehru place is the best bet for 3TBs.

WD 3TB is at 8200 at flipkart now

I dont care much about speed,I just need it to backup my data once or twice in a month,thats it.still any problem with green ones?dont want to spend extra for red drives.

good,finally they are below 8k
they have 2 years warranty compared to 1 year for seagate,right?
did you check price of seagate 3TB too?

flipkart discontinued WD 3TB from their site,why?

i don't think WD Red selling in India .Today i went to nehru place to buy 2TB seagate drive with Z1Exxxx or W1Exxxx series (2platter technology ) and no one have that
they are still selling old 3 platter tech 2tb seagate (W2Fxxxx series )
and seagate 3TB has only 1 year warranty (2 Tb has 2year warranty ) also i don't know whats this 2400 power on hour
i better settle with Hitachi i think[DOUBLEPOST=1363770886][/DOUBLEPOST]i have 1 wd 2tb green one and i have to return it for 5 times within 2 months ,due to bad sector generate !! after 5 th attempt i got one stable WD 2tb green drive which is running okie !
