    I understand that a hard drive made by seagate would fail. I have
    had 3 had drives for my laptop all from segate, and they all
    failed. now i have my western digital HDD 750GB and it works for 2
    years now. also, my windows server 2008 system back at mt place
    has had a hard drive replacement from segate, and i got western
    digital drives for it, now it runs smoothly. Here's a tip: unless
    you want your data lost, I won't ever recommend a seagate hdd. buy
    a western digital or one made by maxtor, ibm, or apple. Segate
    drives have low quality and most crash within the first 1-3 years.
    I am not saying any crap, i am simply stating the facts based on
    the events that happened to me, my friends, and others who buy
    seagate drives. if you are one of those lucky people who don't
    have segate drives die on you, then well, obviousy you have a
    "Rare" good drive that was made by seagate. its not the company
    that is bad, it's the drives and the way they make them, and the
    parts. =(. I'm sorry but it's true.

I have mostly seagate drives and I've never had one fail. I've got a few western digitals and they've held up. The hitachi in my iBook has 2 years on it and looks good. 2 samsung 500GB SATA's in my main tower have 3 years of hard service on them. I haven't ever had a maxtor last more than a year or so.
