the Hdd you suggested is available for ~5800 on snapdeal:
WD AV-GP (WD20EURS) Internal Hard Drive (2TB) - Buy Computer Components @ Best Price | Snapdeal
I also found this one:
Seagate (ST2000VX000) Internal Hard Drive (2TB) - Buy Computer Components @ Best Price | Snapdeal
Shouldn't I be going for seagate one as its providing 3 yrs warranty.
Also for the ups how are microtek ones?

> WD's after sale service is better than that of Seageta. You should go with WD.

> Mirotech UPSes are crap. Why are you looking at these cheap brands when APC 600 AV UPS is available for just 2200?
