Ditto. IBM screwed up for a while about 5 years ago, got their act together, and decided they no longer wanted to be in that business. I've had better luck with IBM/Hitachi and Seagate than Maxtor. Had a really bad time way way back with some 230 MB (yes, million) Western Digital drives and haven't been interested enough in a WD offering since to give them another try. Having said that, have (4) 300G Seagate drives coming today, (2) ATA, (2) SATA. Have probably jinxed myself and those drives. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
