Deskstar failures

The IBM Deskstar 75GXP, and several other models made around the same time,
became infamous for their reportedly high failure rates. This led to the
drives being colloquially referred to as
"Deathstars<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Star>
".

[edit<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hitachi_Deskstar&action=edit&section=2>
] Lawsuit

Despite failures being reported within the manufacturer warranty period (3
years), Michael T. Granito, Jr., an American user of IBM's 75GXP hard drive,
filed a class-action lawsuit against IBM on 2001-10-16 for defects in the
product causing it to
"crash".[1]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deskstar#cite_note-0>Without
admitting responsibility, IBM settled this lawsuit in 2005.
[2] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deskstar#cite_note-1>

] Details

A firmware update (details) <http://www.geocities.com/dtla_update/> gives a
clue to some of the issues:

   - Possible data corruption due to a problem with
S.M.A.R.T.<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-Monitoring%2C_Analysis%2C_and_Reporting_Technology>background
operations.
   - Application of wear
levelling<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear_levelling>to avoid the
heads dwelling too long over the same area

The drives were also known for commonly head
crashing<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_crash>.
The combination of two relatively new (at the time) technologies,
GMR<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_magnetoresistive_effect>heads
and glass platters may be largely to blame for the issues.

In addition to the failure that had led to the lawsuit, additional flaws
were found in Deskstar 60GXP, 75GXP, 120GXP, 180GXP, which are caused by
Giant Magneto Resistive read / write heads, and the easily corrupted NVRAM
chip.[3] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deskstar#cite_note-2>

] Aftermath

Since the filing of lawsuit, IBM unveiled Deskstar 120GXP, Travelstar 60GH
and 40GN in 2001
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001>-11-07<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/November_7>
.[1] <http://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressrelease/1022.wss> The Deskstar
documentation was updated to show the drives had been rated to 333 power-on
hours per month (45 percent), leading to speculation that was the result of
the lawsuit. However, IBM spokesperson replied that the rating is not new at
the 
time.[2]<http://www.computertechzone.com/news/viewnews.cgi?newsid1015845524,42641,>

In June 2002, Hitachi and IBM reached a framework agreement under which
Hitachi would purchase IBM's HDD operations. The deal was closed on
2002-03-31. On 2003-01-06, Hitachi announced the new hard disk drive storage
company is named Hitachi Global Storage
Technologies<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitachi_Global_Storage_Technologies>
.[4] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deskstar#cite_note-3> After finalising
the sale of the storage division, IBM announced taking $2 billion charge in
its second quarter.[5] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deskstar#cite_note-4>
