I have owned dozens of drives over the years. The only reliable brands |

that I have used are Western Digital, IBM and Seagate. |

I have tried Maxtor three separate times. Twice the drive failed |
| 12 |
withing three months, and in both cases, the receipt magically |
| 13 |
disappeared with the box that *somebody* threw out. The last drive in |
| 14 |
just over one year (not willing to mail it in for the return of $40 ... |
| 15 |
lots of important data that needs cleansing first). I swear to GOD that |
| 16 |
I will NEVER buy another Maxtor! |
