Braking power varies from car-to-car. This is actually all speculation until you really compare the Everest vs Fortuner vs Montero. A car with 4 wheel discs doesn't always have superior braking (Mazda 3 2.0R vs Altis G, 10th gen Altis V vs 11th gen Altis G). Our differing experience with 2 cars of succeeding generations further supports this point. Even if ceteris paribus, the overall braking power and longevity will be better in an all disc setup given the same car, these are 3 different SUVs and paper specs mean nothing.
So far among the 3, I've only driven the Everest, and it felt heavy under hard braking, much like a Land Cruiser. But it has noticeably improved braking distance compared to the Fortuner when it was first launched (the Fortuner facelifts had better braking power). Less nose dive compared to the outgoing Montero as well (a nod to its better balanced suspension).
Only definitive way to tell if the drums on the Fort will be a disadvantage is to actually drive it, and drive it hard.

EDIT: The Everest doesn't tumble, but it slides. My bad.
Overall, I personally think the Everest 2.2 Titanium comes out the best buy with the most toys and good-enough aesthetics. However, it's 160k more expensive than the Fortuner G. That's enough to get HID (which the Everest doesn't have) and 20" rims, plus some change. Still none of the safety and convenience features of the Everest though, but it does look better in my eyes.
