Although the general consensus is IBM=evil, I have yet to have one fail.
I've lost 16 of the 18 Maxtor drives I've owned over the past two years,
so they are definitely on my to avoid list. As for WD, I used to love
them, their quality dropped, and I haven't used them since. I've heard
some good things, but am sticking with what works (YAY IBM)

Subject: [SLUG] Hard Drive brand question
I am looking at purchasing a couple new hard drives. My choices are
Western
Digital, IBM, or Maxtor. All are Ultra ATA, 40 gb, 7200 rpm. Does
anyone
have experience as to which is "the best" (TM).
