I had four Seagate PATA HDDs failed on me prematurely, the fifth one was from my XBOX console. I had better luck with WD PATA & SATA HDDs, they lasted around 3-4 years. Up to my expectations to be honest. smile.gif

I'm not curious to try out Hitachi's SATA HDDs, everywhere is selling them now, it must be good I guess.

Yes, WD is more indeed more reliable but for speed benchmarks, WD losses out to Maxtor but a little, however, that's not an issue since I want a long lasting HDD, not one that kongs after a year or two. doh.gif

No offence but whenever I asked for a Samsung hardisk, the shops will tell me not to buy it because Samsung is not famous for making a hardisk, this and that. I wonder why they said that, profit margins not that good?
