[POLL] Best HD Brand

[xplatinum]

We're talking IDE 7200RPM here, no SCSI or S-ATA.

Imo Seagate would be the best... The worst brand award would go to IBM (hitachi).

[samps]

My last couple have been Western Digital and I can't fault them. Fantastic drives. WD got my vote.

[Jediweasel]

Maxtor, read the sig...

When I was taking the 2nd semester of CCNA, a guy in my class used to work for a company testing hard drives. He said that IBM's were the worse and Seagates were the best so far. WD were alright, but not the best. I switched to Seagate after my two WD started to tick :huh:

For PCs I perfer WD, but for xbox I perfer Seagate because Seagates are quiet and cool running.

WD or Seagate.

I like Western Digital...Never had a problem with any of them. Seagate I hear is great also. I don't really like Maxtor drives and have had terrible experience with IBM drives...

WD 8MB cache models have a 3 year warranty for about the same price as the Seagate 7200.7 series.

[tomwarren Veteran]

Western Digital for me :)

[Samoa]

MATXOR,....Then Seagate or WD. Definately not Hitachi (IBM).

[Redestium]

I love my Barracuda (Seagate).

[mtkversion]

Western Digital for me.

I have 2 IBM Deskstars also that work, but one of them clicks all the time and has crashed on 2 occasions losing all the data, but it still works.

I've had nothing but problems with Maxtor. Will never use one again.

Never tried Seagate but might when I do need another ....

[yinyang_34]

Western Digital... :yes:

[GTX]

Tough choice for me: Either Maxtor or Western Digital. I'm never tried Hitachi or Fujitsu, and I've had WAY to many problems with Seagate. But, I decided to vote Western Digital.

[enigma429ad]
