I find that Western Digital and Maxtor tend to wear out easier. I like
Quantum, Fujitsu, Seagate, and IBM. I'm using a variety of all four and
haven't had any problems yet.

Hi,
had defenitely other experience, send a broken harddrive in within
guarantee time with full RMA, never got it back, Maxtor says i never
sent
it, other drives which did return were still broken, i always have to
call
them several times to get them moving - maybe because there is
officially
no customer support center in germany at all, guess i move to the
carribean. ;)
