Western Digital Black is a line known for dependability.

Also costs twice as much as a regular 2TB drive. 😉

I haven't read up on newer seagate gear but I hear the old Barracudas got a lot of flak for breaking easily. Obviously gotta do reasearch 😛

That was the older 4TB + models, the 2TBs are perfectly fine.
