Arrgghh. My refurbished Maxtor Maxline II+ drive died today! “Refurbished to Maxtors standards” they wrote on top of it! Truely a lovely set of standards. Not even a month it lasted. Luckily for me it only contained mythrecordings. Anyhow I’m done with Maxtor. |
My replacement drive is going to be the Seagate Baracuda 7200.10 or the Segate Baracuda ES (7200.10 with enterprise firmware). Whatever I can get my hands on.
