LOL you have no clue how many seagate/samsung/hitachi 1TB/1.5TB drives we have lost due to terrible firmware. seems like once we put one of those things in on a live mail server it shits out 2 weeks later.

western digital all the way.

definitely thumbs down to Seagate drives. They run hotter than a motherfuck which = eventually FAIL.

hitachis were IBM deskstars. I saw a picture where they melted the doors on a drobo.

another 1.5tb seagate drive just failed. I believe that is #13.

They used to be so good, I don't know what happened either. I have a 1.5tb from them that I bought for backing up shit... had to buy a hitachi 1tb to backup my backup drive, pff.

i bought 6 1.5tb seagates. all 6 have died and now 7 of the replacements. I'm going to call them monday morning and yell at them. $14-17 each to mail them in is ridiculous.

Glad I bought that hitachi. Just lost my drive! I won't even bother RMA'ing, not fucking worth it.

STAY AWAY FROM SEAGATE. Especially their baracushits. Worst HDD company on planet.

The first external hard drive I ever bought was a 250 GB Free Agent Pro. It is, knock on thread, still running my iTunes library to this day.

I think all of my 1.5TB seagates are dead.
