I'd like to hear about some real world user opinions on hard drives.  =
I'm looking to purchase a hard drive to put into a hard drive enclosure. =
 Seagate has the 5 year warranty, Western Digital has the 3 year =
warranty.  Seagate now has perpendicular writing technology which seems =
to be getting good reviews.  Anybody have one of the 7200 series =
Seagates with Perpendicular technology?  I've read that the Seagates get =
hotter than the Western Digital.  Since I'm putting it in an external =
enclosure, this could be a concern for me.  Western Digital used to be =
pretty noisy, and I had one die, but that was on my first computer long =
ago and far away.  I've been running a WD in my new computer for 2 years =
now and it's quiet and I've never had a problem with it.  I have a =
Maxtor  60GB in an enclosure right now and it's quiet and hasn't given =
me any trouble.  I've read that Samsung has a good drive that is pretty =
fast, and I believe it has a 3 year warranty.  Does anyone have any =
experience with Samsung? =20

Thanks!
