Never lost data due to WD failure - they have always given me plenty 
of notice.  Had a couple Maxtors die sudden death, while very young.  
Dealt with Seagate only a couple times and remember them to be a pain 
- incompatible.

This is all out of date info.  When I tink HD, I think WD.

Faster spin, faster data access.  Maybe more heat.  There have been 
few drives that turned at 10K - never owned one.
