Seagate barracuda 2tb reliability

[Jacko1235]

Hi everyone I'm after a 2tb hard drive and I cannot decide between either a seagate barracuda or WD black. Seagate is about $70 cheaper then WD so I'm wondering if there is a catch? I'm not too concerned about performance, I am more interested in decent reliability. What do you recommend. I understand the black is more reliable but is it worth an extra $70? Thanks for the help.

I've personally only used Seagate but both brands are very good. I suggest you google some reviews to see what other users think.
