I have absolutely no oppinion. I was merely pointing out that the OP
was presenting his oppinion as fact and I thought that pretty messed up.
Grented, due to the inciteful the subject was, I'm sure this thread
will keep going for at least a week and most of us will remember
something bad about WD the next time we go buy a disc. Oh well. The OP
probably got his wish :)
It's been a few years since I retired, but I remember the IT guys
replacing a _lot_ of Western Digital drives. I guess the
company bought them because they were cheaper, but I don't think they
saved any money. For my own use, I have been using Seagate and
Hitachi, and have had no trouble in quite some time. Obviously, YMMV,
but what I saw sould not encourage me to buy WD.
