Stumbled across this and found it pretty interesting. Especially as to how awful Seagate drives were (the newer 4tb seem to be great).

For servers, RAID and NAS I've pretty much stuck with WD Black. Can't say that I've ever been disappointed.

WD and Seagate,

neither have ever really failed me.

My choice is WD. I remember Seagate 7200.11 has built-in firmware issue, its was a headache to fix it.
