I found this model HDS723030ALA640 which is 3tb and has good reliability but its nos (new old stock) from seller with good feedback on ebay the price is 110$ and 1 year warranty.

now is it right to buy this hdd? ABOUT how much will last? notice this max my budget.

HDS722020ALA330 2tb 3year warranty newegg
HDS5C3020ALA632 (0F12117) 2tb 3year warranty from newegg

hello and welcome to the site.

As far as reliability is concerned it is generally just bad luck if your HDD fails on you. I would personally go for HDS5C3020ALA632 (0F12117), unless you really need 3tb. Because with the 3 year warranty if it does fail latter down the line you will at-least receive a replacement.

thanks, but you recommend in specific this model HDS722020ALA330 than HDS5C3020ALA632 (0F12117

Sorry i said the wrong one i meant to say the HDS5C3020ALA632 (0F12117) as it was the less expensive one. But if you do want 3tb the HDS723030ALA640 is a good drive.
