Go Samsung actually made by Samsung in Korea or if you can get Hitachi
actually made by Hitachi in Japan. Western Digital and Seagate come out
of the same plants in Thailand and Indonesia and don't last.
I had a 14 year old Toshiba Laptop with a Toshiba disk, The disk died
after 14 month when the warranty has expired. Replaced it with Samsung
disk. The Laptop was used until very recently 24/7 as mail and web
server with buld in UPS (battery) until the screen and keyboard died.
The Samsung disk is still alive and well as a plugin backup for the
replacement Laptop server.
