Strange, I'm on my 2nd hard drive in the laptop I've had for < 2yrs. And
I consider my self careful. It spends most of it's life on my, in
hibernation or fairly stable on my lap.
And the laptop has those sensors which detect movement and tell the
drive to spin down.
The 2nd drive was installed in Oct-06 and I see errors in event log
reporting bad sectors.
A certain percentage of hard drives fail anyway, even when installed in
servers or desktops. My own experience with laptops is pretty good. I
had one drive fail when it was almost new in 10 years or so. I'm on my
fourth laptop now, and I'll be getting the fifth real soon.
