Need Advice In HDD Toshiba DT01ACA300 3TB OR WD 3TB Blue. My computer run 24/7 need advice which one is best..

Either one, although I would have a preference for WD or HGST.
Avoid looking on the internet for HDD failure rates.

HGST is not available

Get the Western Digital.
It'll live longer atleast.

You should get green if it is a storage device.
because it idles when not in use thus increasing the lifespan.

HDD didn't die without any reason, unplug n plug decreases its life and creates more risk...i'm using many hdd's in a single pc from 4-5 years or more.
only one 2tb has died due to psu's low power/ power failure.

Well i read a study on some website long time back the best HDD was from the brand Hitachi.
segate and WD are almost equivalent

yeah you are right.. i also do some research that seagate have higher failure rate and Hitachi have very very low failure rate
