Based on in order of importance to me, Reliability, Speed, Price, and Warranty. Just throw down an answer, if you see the same answer as yours please just thumbs up that one so that it's easier for me to see all the responses and count them. If you could also link the drive that would be appreciated too. thank you!
 
There is no "best" hard drive. There is a best for specific applications. Choose what works best for your apps using the list of SATA II 1TB drives here:

For SATA III drives, I'm using the Barracuda XT

If you don't have an SSD, then the Seagate Momentus drives are a nice choice but they don't come in 1TB sizes:
