I bought one bad Maxtor drive that started spouting read errors the first time I tried to format it. Instead of availing of the warranty or having the drive replaced outright, I formatted around the read errors and ran the drive for three years before I finally gave up on it. If a bad Maxtor drive could last that long, a good Maxtor drive should last ages. I've never had the chance to test this theory though, since I upgrade to a higher-capacity drive in as little as two years. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
