i used to be a WD fanboy, but for storage (nas/ servers) i switched to seagate a while back. 

IMO seagate is a bigger bang for the buck.

Yea I would agree with you. Go with Caviar Black if you want reliability but the barracuda has a better price/gb ratio than the Caviar Black. Been using a Barracuda for quite a while now and I currently experience no problems.

SEAGATE!!! I really have to say that all 3 Barracudas I got are running fast, quiet and are working for 4.5 years now. Just my experience ;-)

Are the same, both the barracuda and the black, the only thing of favoreble WD is your guarantee, but in performance is still the same black more noisy.
