While it is always a good thing to have a longer warranty, I wonder what the perception of warranty is. Ex. I had drives fail well within the warranty timeframe. And it just means that you get your drive replaced or your money back. IMHO it does not necessarily mean that the drive will be more reliable. regards Eberhard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
