At your budget Segate would be good as WD Green Edition has suffered reliability issues with many users.

I don't think, you can find a Toshiba 2TB In-HDD here.

Another thing, apart from WD Caviar Black series which is a performance Disk, comes with 5 years of warranty and comes around 10K , none of the Seagate and WD HDD comes with 3 years of warranty. It is 2 years for all WD and Seagate 2 TB Models and 1 year for Seagate 500 GB and lower sized disks. For Toshiba, I don't think any 2 TB HDD is available.

For Toshiba buy the Toshiba DT01ACA200 eyes closed. The link you have provided is of the older DKTIN2TB7200 is a 2TB HDD with 8MB of buffer,not inspiring. While the new Toshiba DT01ACA200 has a 64MB buffer for 2TB costs Rs 6000 and is mighty fast!
