Austin,
Yeah, you don't need to tell me about WD drives. I've been in IT a long time, and 95% of the IDE drives I've seen fail have been WD's. Like Dave said, must be a reeeeeaaaly long phase. ;^)
Historically I've always had good luck with Maxtor, but I'm a little spooked now having just had one fail @ ~8 months of age, especially with the reduced warranty.
Can't afford SCSI, but maybe I'll start looking at the Seagate IDE drives a little harder. Seems like recently their prices have become more competitive - hope there's not a corresponding reduction in quality!
