The class action lawsuit was because they (like every other HD manufacturer 
in existence) specify 1GB as 1 billion bytes, not 1,073,741,824 bytes. A 
dumb practice, but an even more retarded lawsuit. Some idiots got pissy and 
sued, and some lawyers got rich. Typical story. And it had nothing to do 
with the Raptor series.
