I currently have two 1TB WD Black which I'm happy with, but unfortunately I can't find them anywhere near the $80 I paid back then. I can however find a 2TB Seagate for $119, which sounds like a reasonable deal for a 7200RPM HDD with 64MB cache. I haven't purchased Seagate since the 2GB days, so I guess I'm out of the loop.

Are they any good? At that price I'd buy at least two. There's also the 3TB Seagate that I saw at $189, doesn't seem to be a bad price either. Your thoughts?

I saw those 3TB drives @ $199 recently. They're pretty fast and 1TB a platter but only come with a 1 year warranty.

I'd pick them up for Raid 1 but not for extended solitary storage.
