I have a similar experience from samsung hd's. My university computer has one. |

Before this one it had another one. That old one was a 10gb version that was |
15 |
particularly slow. Besides that allready three of my colleagues had had |
16 |
problems with similar drives. Then mine started to act up. I guess I was on |
17 |
to it in time and I got a replacement before it stopped working completely. |

In any case backups are the way to go as I have had a number of hd crashes in |
20 |
my life allready. |
