Have no idea about Toshiba and from what I have heard Transcend is not a popular choice. Moreover RMA for Seagate and WD is good. Have you considered buying a USB 3.0 device if your hardware supports it? What is your preference for size ( 2.5" or 3.5") ? Budget ? and where are you buying from ? -- ~GAURAV LUTHRA~ -- Mailing list guidelines and other related articles: http://lug-iitd.org/Footer
