Can I buy Seagate HDD these days without encountering those problems posted here?

I don't really wanna pay more for WD Black or Blue.

I am using the 1TB Seagate HDD bought mid March 2009, so far no problems after usage of two weeks. Also, it doesn't seem to make much noise when accessing the data in it as reported in this thread.

I did not flash the firmware. If this goes well till June / July 2009 I might get another HDD.

Good thing is that all my data is backup in another PC. Hence, if this fail I will not be worried about lost data.

I sincerely hope it doesn't though.
