Western Digital, by far the best. Then Seagate, then IBM. Maxtor is 4th. It's just cheaper thats why its advertised so much.

Maxtor and Western Digital? That's like going to your doctors and saying, "appointment or suppository".

And we aren't buying memory, we're buying a hard drive.

Mine was 30GB, had to upgrade to 80. I need the storage for my DBZ, DBGT, South Park, and Movie rips. I got 55GB of movies on my PC.
