Enterprise 3.5" HDD

What do people recommend for an Enterprise 3.5" HDD these days? I have always used the Seagate Constellation range.

Looking for something in the 1TB to 2TB bracket.

Thanks...

Enterprise proper, the WD RE range are what you're after or Seagate Constellation CS. Enterprise for home, RE or Red edition, depending on your budget.

Constellation ES.2 and .3 for 7200rpm disks.

Hitachi Ultrastar. I would never use WD enterprise drives. I think the drives my company get for HP swervers and EMC SANs are generally Seagate or Hitachi.

Seagate Constellation here as well. I never trust WD or Hitachi Drives.

Looks like we will stick with the Seagates then! Thanks for the replies.

Seagate ES particularly the SAS drives rather than NS, If you must have SATA then Hitachi Ultrastar A series, ie. A7K2000
