    Data-recovery is part of my job here. From my
    observations, Maxtor drives are most likely to crash
    or burn! I know some maxtor models which are
    irrevocably condemned to fail! I found Western Digital
    and Seagate have the best reliability. My be different
    qualities from region to region? WD hards being sold
    here (Iran) are manufactured in Malasya.

    In my opinion:

    Quietest = Maxtor
    Most reliable = Western, Seagate
    Coldest = Fujitsu
    Fastest = ? (depends on model)

    Best Regards,
    Bahram Alinezhad,
    Rudehen, Tehran, Iran.
