WD's Black series is a higher quality HDD though and comes with 5 years warranty. I presume we are talking about WD's Black series pricing.
Anyways. Seagate suffers from high failure rate with their 3TB drives making them avoidable. You'd be well off with 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB or 2x WD Caviar Blue 2TB, or even 2x Hitachi Ultrastar 2TB.

This is exactly the wrong way to use the statistics Backblaze provides. You cannot look at a single high failure rate, and extrapolate it to the entire brand of drive. WD's failure rate was lower in that graphic only because the average age of the WD drives was less than a year, vs 2-4 years for the other brand drives.

You have to look at specific drive models. The high average failure rate for Seagate drives is almost entirely due to two models. 1.5TB ST31500341AS and 3TB ST3000DM001. Remove those two drives from the stats and (if you insist on doing it the wrong way and compare by brands) Seagate is better than WD.
That's exactly what Backblaze did - removed the problem drives from their servers. And as a result their Seagate drives were more reliable than WD in the 2015 stats.

So ignore the brand name. Look for or avoid specific models.
And WD has a $40 price premium over Seagate because huge numbers of people misread Backblaze's previous reports and concluded Seagate sucked while WD was great. Their 2015 report eliminates the problem Seagate models, and you can see WD is actually less reliable on average than Seagate. Ignore the brand name, look for specific models.
