I had a Maxtor drive die just after the one-year warranty expired. We had one server with Maxtors that died twice in one year. Because of this, we now have a "Seagate-only" policy for hard-drives - they may cost a bit more but they're reliable and many come with a three year warranty. -- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
