A lot of people swear by Hitachi drives and I've never understood
it. The "Deathstar" IBM drives were made by Hitachi during their
entire run. The stigma hurt IBM so badly that they sold off the
whole division to Hitachi over it.

Cite?
I happen to have a deathstar drive sitting here on my desk (I've not
gotten around to taking it apart for the magnets), and no where on it
does it say Hitachi (says that it was made in Thailand by IBM Storage
Products).
For fear of sounding dumb. Just what does a person do with the
magnets? Where are they in the drive.
