No personal experience of their laptop models but
AFAIK Maxtor never made laptop drives. Never seen one. Could be
wrong. Dunno. I didn't think they did at any rate.
Never seen one either, so I suspect not. But then again I never
knew WD
made lappy drives either.
WD Scorpion is not a name I've seen about before. I suspect they are
trying to jump on the laptop bandwagon.
Western Digital have never curried much favour with me. Their drives
have always been 'so-so'. Then again any company that can devote time
and R&D fund to making a clear-cover hard disk instead of improving
their QA and drive performance maybe doesn't feel it wants to be the
top dog?

I'll eat my hat before I spend that on a 150GB ATA drive - clear
cover or not!
