around 6k, you will get wd green or seagate. wd blue is available up to 1tb only and 2tb black will be beyond your budget

AFAIK Red is for CCTVs, not a good performer if used in PC.

Not really, i prefer WD red over Green. I use both in my AMD comp and its a decent performer, atleast slightly better than WD Green.
Go through this--- Western Digital Red Hard Disk Drives for Network Attached Storage Review - X-bit labs

Also to note that the warranty period for Red is longer than Green too.
