I swear by Seagate, never ever lost one.
Have lost IBM, Hitachi, Fuji, Maxtor and Western Digital.
Better safe than sorry.

I Believe you when you say Western Digital Drives are returned more
than maxtor or seagate.
I have owned several hard drives. I have one 60 meg seagate that is
now 21 years old. I used it with my Apple IIGS, which is now
retired, but it worked fine. My Quantum that came with my s900
works fine and its 8 or nine years old now. I have an IBM and a
Hitachi and a Maxtor and an IBM. All these drives work.
I have owned 3 40gig WDs and one 120gig WD. I returned on of my
original 40gigs which flaked out and it was replaced. Of the
remaining 2 one has died and the 120gig acts like it might quit.
The remaining good 40gig and the iffy 120gig are each in their own
Firewire case.
I hope my 130gig Maxtor doesn't die because I went iTunes happy
this weekend and decided rip my CD collection and my iTunes folder
went from 10gig to 43gig. This does not inspire confidence.
