// a bit bitter, had a few HD crashes, all Maxtor.]]>Apr 10th 2006 4:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/
Plus, nowadays, when you have a drive failure; it seems they will only replace it with a refurbished one without exceptions! Like that gives me confidence. As a matter of fact, one of the refurb replacements went out two weeks ago. No warning (XP doesn't monitor drive status, no apparent symptoms during use). Slam.

A month or so ago, looking for a small & portable backup solution, I spotted an external hard drive on the shelf in a store with a warranty of a whopping 6 months! Forgot the name, but ... 6 months?! ]]>Apr 10th 2006 8:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/
Granted, this was a couple years ago, but it burned me badly enough that I will never, ever, ever use a product with the Maxtor name on it again. ]]>Apr 10th 2006 9:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/Apr 10th 2006 9:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/Apr 10th 2006 10:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/Apr 11th 2006 12:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/maxtor-shows-new-storage-products/Apr 11th 2006 3:32AM
