I have no experience with Quantum, but I have been using
Maxtor drives for years.  I also have a fair number of
Fujitsu drives.  Seems to me "model" is more important than
make, I can recall particular WD models that my local
distributors warned me had very high defective rates.
I also recommend you buy a 7200 rpm drive even if it means
moving up in size.  I am currently buying Maxtor and IBM,
but I have no prejudice against Seagate.

Now as to choosing the hard disk, I would go with typical UDMA hard
disks 8.4 Gb, the faster ones (66Mhz) are too expensive for this
purchase).
