Harddisk Manufacturer

[Big_0n3]

Nowadays we see a lot of hard disk on computer shop. Mostly the market that we see is Seagate and Western Digital. Which is the best and stable can use more than 5 years? Let me know is any other hard disk come out on the market now.

I have two seagate hard disk ..and I am well satisfied.
But than also I will suggest WD, as it provide home service and I have read some good reviews about it.

Well i somehow prefer seagate.
Have bought three drives so far.
First 20GB seagate only lasted 3.5 yrs.
Now using a 80GB HDD, also bought a 750GB HDD for my new rig...

Seagate is the best IMHO,
I have 2 Seagate 250 GB HDD
1 Seagate 750 GB HDD
1 Samsung 320 GB HDD
And 2 Western Digital 80 GB HDD.

Using two PATA Seagate HDDs from last 4 years, no frills till now. So I suggest Seagate, but I heard that WD replaces their faulty drive by sending a new drive to customer's home. That is good to hear but still I prefer a good, long-lasting HDD that would to wear out so easily. No point of replacements when the drive is good. :mrgreen:

Check the new Seagate 7200.12 drives. They offer much better Data Transfer rates, in the tune of 115MBps. People even compare them to WD Raptors and they dont cost a bomb.

After that failures frm seagate, i would purchase a Western Digital next time.
