Well, I finally got around to testing out my IBM 60GXP's and lo and behold one of them has bad sectors...
Normally, I'd give the company a second chance, but considering I had cooling on them and the bad press on their drives, I'm not gonna buy another IBM. Too risky.
 
never bought a IBM hard drive before, Only either buy Maxtore or Seagate! Even though I have had some problems with Maxtore, I think they are very good.
 
Yes, Maxtor is pretty good, and their RMA process has also been a no hassle for me. I'm not sure what I'll do. I'd like to go SCSI but that's gonna be about $300 at least. I'd also like to snag one of those Western Digital drives with the 8meg cache. Hopefully, I might even be able to get them to send me one.;)


Oh, BTW, speaking of hard drives, I got an e-mail back from Maxtor. They said they're declining to send me one, but they will be checking up on the site.:)
 
at least they will keep and eye on our site! :)

anyway, Western Digital are also a good company, currently you can get 100GB 7200 Western Digital Hard Drive for around £120

which isn't that bad! thats like £1.20 for one gig!!!
