We had a very simlar discussion a few years ago on this list. I think the final conclusion was that it appears that more WDs fail because there are so many more of them in use. I've got 3 WDs and all work fine. But then I have never had a hard drive fail. (knock on wood) Mke -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
