However, the failure rate for new drives that we get in, is extremely high. (Out of every 10 drives, at least 4 of the drives are bad.) I was curious to know if there is another alt. to Seagate, or maybe someone else has a recommendation. Perhaps even a URL to a supplier that does burn in tests on the drives to make sure they are, in fair shape. Thanks.
