Maxtor sucks and IBM rules! Besides, I would take a 7200RPM > over a 5400RPM any day - all else considered. I must admit I haven't had terribly good results with Maxtor drives overall either. Good thing I know about places *other than* Comp USA and Micro Center (which seem to have almost nothing but Maxtor hard drives for some reason). I've been putting in a bunch of the WD 7200 RPM 20 gig drives, 4 in the last couple of months. Of course larger is better for some things, too, but when upgrading a 2 gig web space partition on my server, I figured 20 gig was enough! (And I put in two of them, in a RAID 1 mirror, just for drill). -- David Dyer-Bennet / Welcome to the future! / dd-b at dd-b.net SF: http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ Minicon: http://www.mnstf.org/minicon/ Photos: http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/
