500GB Seagate drive failed...they replaced it with a 750GB drive
#11
Yippee!

Now you can lose even more data when one drive crashes.

"Luckily" you had a recent backup. But-- you shouldn't trust backups to luck, and you shouldn't have needed the backup so soon.

I used to say any manufacturer can have a bad batch but more and more I'm more leery of Seagate.

The idea of 1T HDs is really attractive, but there's no way I'll trust any manufacturer at this point to keep 1T of data on just one of their spindles.

My next HD investment will be in/for two 1T drives and a RAID box of some kind.
