Great while it lasts

Reviewed By: on 5/31/2007

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Fast, quiet

Cons: Crapshoot. Some of these drives fail within months. Others apparently last forever.

Other Thoughts: I bought two: one for OS drive, the other for offline backup of OS drive. A few months later, I added more drives and began getting "Unknown hard error" crashes in Windows. Thought they were related or that the motherboard was going...
after swapping out drives and a new OS install, accessing the first OS drive a few min after a restart caused the system to hang. Took forever to get my non-replaceable data off it.

Don't void the manufacturer's warrantee.

Tech Level: average - Ownership: more than 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Typical Quiet Seagate technology. Good value for the money (as I write this on May 27, 2007)

Cons: Made in China != Made in (another southeast Asian country not nameable under Newegg's policy that starts with In and ends with dia). I purchased several of these locally: One made in China, the other two elsewhere in SE Asia. They had identical part numbers (but different lot numbers). The Made in (Another SE Asian Country) drives would not work with onboard raid on my ASUS A8N32-SLI mainboard. The drive purchased from Newegg was (luckily) made in China and has no issues.
