As one who maintains and upgrades computers all the time, my prime
concerns are reliability and support.  Western Digital is my choice,
because I had two failures [in 75 machines over 2 years--running large
network apps 24 hours/day] and called WD.  In 48 hours, I had a new HD
FedEx'd to me at their expense with minimal questions asked. [the
serial number and the problem] Of course, I had to return the old hard
drives, but had 30 days to it.
