I want to get a 3.5" internal drive with at least 1.5 TB of space @ 7200 rpm with a 5 year warranty. I am having trouble finding these. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!!!

WD is about the best, and I would recommend one of these - 1TB - http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=488 (Sata 3) - 5 year warranty, 3.5", 7200RPM, or 2TB - http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=733 (Sata 3) - 5 year warranty, 3.5", 7200RPM. Stay away from the EARS models which are this green / enviro friendly BS. Get the full speed drives.
 
Most manufacturer's are moving their consumer models to 3yr warranties, while keeping their enterprise models to 5yrs.

So far, Western Digital hasn't done this with their Caviar Black series (check out the Specifications section, which list 5yrs on all of the following models). ;)
1.0TB
1.5TB
2.0TB
