Pros: At the time purchased, fall 2006, best price for it's size.

Cons: Unfortunatly though despite it's 5 or was it 7 year warranty I doubt it'll make it 5 years. There currently are mount and recovery issues each time i reboot the system this is on with the rest of the drives (Seagate; older drives at that) running fine.

Other Thoughts: Picked up this drive when it's GB/$ ratio was optimal. Maybe Seagates time of optimal performance has passed and they're going with bleeding edge rather than performance.

Cons: NONE

Other Thoughts: Values at Newegg can rarely be beat, and when you consider the speedy service, nobody beats Newegg. After thrity years in electronics and IT, I shope Newegg almost exclusively.
