I'm about to buy 2Tb Internal Hard drive but i'm very much confused between Seagate,WD Green and Toshiba.All 3 has very good reviews...

My Purpose is mainly storing Huge data and i'm looking for realiable Drive with good support and warranty...


What is your budget? Don't get the WD Green, many people have said that it's a pretty terrible drive. You would want to look for WD Black Drives. I don't think I would go for Toshiba either.

Wouldnt go Toshiba, aren't really that big a competitor in the HDD space.

Betwen WD and Seagate, would say both are about equal. WD has a higher price tag and a longer warranty, Seagate is generally cheaper (especially on 2TB drives) but only a 1yr warranty.
IMO, go for the Seagate. A HDD will fail in the first few months or never in my experience, so the longer warranty is pointless.

Also remember that all come from the exact same factory most likely, quality wise theres no real difference.
