> Maxtor?!? All but 2 I've been around (at work) have died at one time or > another. I would never buy a Maxtor or Quantum.
Well, I admit to having less than perfect luck with the Maxtor 1.6 gig drive I bought in 1996 - it seems to have developed one or two bad sectors since installation -- but the previous drive I got back in 1993 is probably still 100% good. I had to take it out because of space restrictions, but after six or seven years of continuous operation (I got it in 1993) it was still working perfectly. I know people with Quantums (Quanta?) who have had several problems, and also people who have had issues with two different manufacturers drives in the system. Right now I have the aforementioned Maxtor, plus an IBM Deskstar 30GB I got in October 2000. The IBM is flawless.
