Thanks for the list. I forgot about Quantum, I still have about 30 of 
the 80-500MB drives laying around.....okay, maybe not 30, but a lot of 
them!

IBM was my all time favorite, they made some rock solid drives, but I 
haven't bought a drive in almost 3years! As for quantum, they no longer 
make drives either, Maxtor owns their HardDrive division. I hear mixed 
reviews of the maxtor drives, of course, I never expected much from a 
company that was basically born from micropolis. :p I guess that pretty 
much leaves Seagate and WesternDigital (WD has a lot of DOA drives 
hanging around it seems, but they have a fairly good warranty 
replacement)
