Seagate to Purchase Maxtor

It isn't as old as the DeskStars I've got dotted around (there's a 20GB in my desktop, and another 15GB in the server) but it's been in use 12 hours a day, 7 days a week for the best part of three years and hasn't missed a beat yet. If Maxtor still made them, I'd buy another two - I've got a pair of HDD caddies that are just begging to have drives installed in them...
