Dear All,
According to the shootout on Tom's hardware and other sites, Seagate's drives are quite good.
I just purchased a 40 GB Barracuda a month back and am happy with it.
I also had a bios issue on the PC which took this HDD so I had to tell the drive to report a 32 GB size - otherwise my system was not detecting the drive.

Are u speaking out of your personal experience
Or just like that!!!
I am using two harddrives of seagate 20 GB ..5200 rpm
for last one year ..and i had no problems with them
NOne at all for that matter
I am still under the impression that SEagate HDD
provide very good value for money
apart from being of reliable quality
Could someone else proabably comment on it as well
