It's nuts...
I built a machine for a friend of mine ...maybe 3 years ago...
It now has a total of 5 drives...some internal, some external...
and they seem they keep dying within 2 - 9 months.
All have been replaced under warranty
and none of the replacements have had any problems...some are over 2 year
old now.
I've used maxtor, western digital and seagate the latest has been a month
old seagate baracuda which is now the 5th drive that's gone.
as a precaution i even replaced the PS on the machine...but one has dies
since then.This seems to defy the odds!
BTW: each problem was a verifiable warranty problem...
but it's beyond anything i've ever experienced
