I am in the market for a new hard drive for my laptop. The two contenders seem to be
* HITACHI Travelstar 5K160 160GB SATA 5400rpm[1] * Western Digital Scorpio 160GB SATA 5400rpm[2] The specs on both drives are essentially the same. They also both appear to have a 3 year warranty (although, I did see something on the WD site that seemed to indicate that the WD might have a 1 year warranty). So, since they're both mostly the same, I'd like to hear if people have experience between Hitachi and Western Digital. In other words, which one do you think will be more reliable? Which one would you buy?
