I have had the best luck with Maxtor drives.
I detest Seagate for the reasons you mentioned.
This goes to show how much experiences vary. We'll never buy another
Maxtor drive ever again at my employer, or me personally. After
countless failures in multiple drive lots, and numerous more failures
with the replacement drives, we won't even bother RMA'ing anything
Maxtor that dies (though almost all we had are long dead and trashed).
We use almost all Seagate drives now, haven't had many problems at all,
and the few that needed RMA were a slight pain, but nothing terrible.
I've had to deal with *much* worse.
Of course Maxtor == Seagate now, Seagate bought them. Not sure what
their plans for Maxtor are.
