I have both.

But i'd have to say WD because i've got an almost unkillable external drive that they made

Usually Seagate is cheaper for more storage while WD is more

Quality/reliability wise they are equal pick the cheapest offer if we are talking about newer drives.

Doesn't matter, but I'd take WD regardless, because they've been more reliable to me than any seagate I've owned. (my current seagate 1TB is barely even getting 43MB/s in writes and 75MB/s in reads, that's slower than any WD green drives, couldn't RMA it because speed isn't covered by the warranty apparently...)

I have them both. 

i'd have to say seagate barracuda because its $10-20 cheaper and 7200RPM but depends on special both brands. Doesn't really matter what brands to me, i have no problem with seagate and WD :)

I prefer WD because my dad only uses WD for their reliability.

I'll use either. I really don't care. I'm personally using 2 Seagate drives and 1 Western Digital drive right now. They're fine drives.
