Try IBM, I have had good luck with both WD and IBM. Just keep in mind that
service is important too, I really like IBM's fast replacement when ever you
have a bad IBM disk. I had once got a IBM harddisk that been destroyed by
lighting strick (the damage can be spotted easily by eye), I tried my luck
(I told my customer IBM possibly won't replace it) to send it back to IBM,
two days later, I recieved a new harddisk, no quesion asked.
