LGA CPU feature (may or may not be on-topic) (REPOST)

So far the best drives I've found (from a reliability standpoint) are the older Maxtors (DiamondMax 60 through D740X; the latter being a Quantum-designed drive) and the newer Seagates (U4 through Momentus 5400/8 and Barracuda 7200.9). The old IBM DeskStars are nice too - the 34GXP and the 75GXP (when firmware-patched with DFT). I've got a 15GB 75GXP (DTLA-372015) in my server and a 20GB 34GXP (DPTA-372050) in my desktop. I've got an 80GB Maxtor D740X showing 18169 hours of run time, an 80GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 SATA2 with 1642 hours, 11347 hours on the 20GB 34GXP, and 1470 hours on the 40GB Momentus (Seagate ST94813A) in my laptop. Not too bad for a bunch of desktop-class drives. -- Phil. | (\_/) This is Bunny.
