The big players like Google have stats, but without them I think any of the 
manufacturers mentioned are fine. Last time I dug deep WD had a slight lead in 
firmware support for various interesting new bits of the standards, but unless you 
plan to use those functions that won't matter to you. Possible the gap has closed.
Thanks for your replies both of you. I am thinking I will probably go for a couple of seagate drives.

cheers roly :-)
