Western Digital MyBook vs Seagate Free Agent

Im looking at getting a 500gb external eSATA hard drive within the next week. BB has the Seagate one on sale this week for $159.99 and next week the MyBook for $149.99. Anyone have some advice on which one to pick up? Its only a 10 dollar difference and wont factor into my decision. Anyone have better experience with one over the other?
 
Pretty sure the FreeAgent Pro has a 5 year warranty vs. the WD's 1 yr.

No brainer there IMO.

Or, the cheaper option is to find an internal HDD on sale + enclosure.
 
I picked up a freeagent pro recently, it's great. 5yr warranty can't be beat, build quality seems very solid, the software is nice, and it even looks nice.
