Both are good, but if you are looking into silence rather than raw performance (for which Maxtor are very good also) I would get the Seagate rather than WD

most seagates have 5 year warrantys. No western digital's do. You can't go wrong with a company that will replace the drive in 4 years and 11 monthes if it fucks up
