I think I'm going to need a new hard drive as mine seems to be
corrupting data. I have a dual boot with Win98 on C (bad drive) and
WinXP Home on D (newer drive). I never use C for anything anymore
except that XP installed some of it's files on C and seems to need
them. The C drive is about to go out, so since I need more space
anyway I thought I'd go ahead and replace it instead of unplugging
the bad drive and resinstalling XP on D (which would then become the
new C). I'm only intermediate; I don't even know if that would work
anyway. All my data is on partitions of my newer drive.
I was about to buy one, but after reading the reviews on them, I'm
more confused than ever. I looked at Western Digital, Maxtor, and
Seagate drives. It seems that in reading the reviews for each one,
some people love them, and some people say theirs failed within 2 or
3 months and was replaced by a refurbished one with a shorter
warrenty. Now I don't know which one to buy. I just want a reliable
cheap one since it's really a second drive.
Can you guys tell me which HD you have the best 'luck' with?
Also, if you have any advice on how to go about this, I would really
appreciate it.
TIA,
Diane
