I want to buy 2TB inter HDD .
Preferred brand is Seagate , since never used WD and Seagate is serving me quite well ...

Read about Barracuda Green 5900 rpm drives from Seagate , are they available in India ?
HDD will be used only for data backup , do i guss its better to get green version instead of 7200.12 since I already have one 7200.12 and will be keeping pc on for 12 hours for downloads ...

plz suggest !

I have 2 WD Green's in my machine since a year. They both are 1TB and are used for dumping data. Both performing as required no issues there.

Unfortunately no HDD is reliable these days.....:(

1TB is quite safe , problem is with higher ones like 1.5 & 2TB AFAIK ...

BTW totally agree with your siggy , I'm Palit victim too :x
