So there seems to be a pattern :-/
How about SSD they are not that much more?  Will it withstand Gentoo 
compilations :-) ?

Interesting ... mine also failed catastrophically a couple of months ago after
around 5 years of continuous use.

Which reminds me to run a backup on my Seagate:

Model Family:     Seagate Momentus 7200.4
Device Model:     ST9500420ASG

I'm not sure how much anecdotal reports on reliable drives actually hold
water, unless we're talking about an epidemic of failures like I seem to
recall Dell's Seagate drives experienced a few years ago.
