last I checked seagate was best of the best (my crummy old 7200.9 80GB drive is still very alive 3 years into its lifespan), so I can see no real downside...

I have one of these that I've run nearly a year 24/7 and I'm very happy with it, but it's getting full. I figured I'd just save some money and buy another, but for $15 more the one on top is quite attractive.

I'm just wondering about stability of terabyte drives really and what the differences are between models that basically have the same specs with large price differences (even among Seagate drives).
I'll put up some links later.
Seagate externals were having firmware problems last I checked. Dunno about internals.
there are cockroaches in it, i believe. i read some reviews on cnet that said the eggs hatched when the drive spun and millions of roaches come out into your house.

This is one of Seagate's problem drives. I wouldn't get it. Slickdeals hates the deal http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthr...1612&t=1268015
So there ARE problematic Seagate drives.
What the hell caused this?
Firmware cockup.
roaches

Looks like I was pretty fortunate with the drive I have; it's one of the affected model numbers but my serial number is fine.
