Oh, you are correct about the money. If it happened to us I'll also
think twice about that too. The biggest problems thus far we had were
with Samsung disks. I haven't seen such a high fail rate in all my
life. About 70% of the 100 disks we got failed within a year. Too bad
Seagate took them over. I can only hope that Seagate's manufacturing
an QA doesn't suffer because of that.
