Re: [Staffslug] Hard drives....

This is one of those 'crappy' questions I know, but, can anybody suggest something here? I'm looking at upgrading my existing hard drive (main one in the main PC). I think I am going to get a 500gb IDE/EIDE (PATA) model. That seems to be the best point for gigabytes per buck :-) Go over the 500gb size and the price rockets... But which manufacturer? I always used to use Quantum until I had a load of bad 8gb drives (yes, it was a long time ago). I have recently used Seagate and had no problems with them. I seem to recall somebody saying that Seagate are one of the lowest return to base manufacturers. What about Western Digital? Are they any good? Help :-) -- ============================================== Kevan Farmer Linux user #373362 Staffordshire _______________________________________________ Staffslug mailing list Staffslug(a)staffslug.org.uk http://www.staffslug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/staffslug
