They are both 2tb, and the seagate costs like 5 dollars more where i live.
Their performance is equal i guess, and what matters to me is reliability. Which brand is more reliable?
In my experience witn the seagate i currently have, it failed on me like 1 year after use. It causes severe lag to my pc in games and all, and from what I've read online their reliability is garbage. Does wd offer better reliability?
 
Solution
Flip a coin.

In a single instance of a drive, there is no predicting lifespan.

You had a Seagate die...the last HDD I had die was a WD.
