:) I searched online and WD seems to be a good solution, but I missed a lot of information, after I got the drive, I found a lot of contrary claims. As I already mentioned before. What was valid for model A revison B with good or bad luck seldom is valid for a general claim about products from a vendor. Just a few vendors are known to be less good than other vendors, but I can't say what vendors that are regarding to HDDs. I even don't have a valid statistic for my personal experiences. One year I'm jobless or working at home, a girlfriend visiting me often so the drives are on 24/7, the other year I've got a job outside, I more often visit a girlfriend, so I turn the computer more often on and off. Drives most of the times die regarding to the count of spinning up and down. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
