I have the western blu good drive so far own 3 and I have several seagates good drives as well as for the black I dont have but saw some iffy reviews on some models on newegg but it happens to all the drive makers. Take it with a grain of salt.

Just my 2 cents!

Seagate barracuda has better read speeds than the Caviar Blue. The write speeds are about equal on Barracuda and WD Blue

Write Speeds : WD Caviar Black > WD Caviar Blue ~ Seagate Barracuda (almost equal)

Read Speeds : WD Caviar Black > Seagate Barracuda > WD Caviar Blue

So, I would personally prefer the Seagate Barracuda more.
