I've had great luck with the TravelStars and
UltraStars... but the
Death^WDeskStars I tend to avoid; Altho they're not as bad as some drives
I've used, I've not had quite as good luck with them as Western Digital.
Old Western Digital drives, I had quite a lot of trouble with. They seem
to have fixed their quality problems, though, and I use them exclusively now.
I have an IBM drive in my desktop dual G4, though, and that seems to work
pretty well. Also, the big Fujitsu half height SCSI disk in my Apple server
has performed very well under constant pounding for quite awhile.
I won't touch Maxtors.
