While I do like Seagates, and basically what I'm telling you is to buy a Seagate, you can also buy Maxtor drives which are basically identical to Seagates. I bought this 500G Maxtor:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822144455 that is literally the same drive as a 300G Seagate I bought a year earlier. Identical in every detail (except capacity). I've read that Maxtor was bought by Seagate and it appears that they're making drives and branding them as Maxtors. My 300G hasn't given me an ounce of trouble. Formatted ext3 on Ubuntu server. -- verbatone ------------------------------------------------------------------------ verbatone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3556 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38646 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
