I have an old 700 MB WD IDE drive that still works fine and has about 6=20 years 24/7 survived. And I also had a 2000$ 73G SCSI IBM drive that lasted= =20 for about 5 monthas and was that damadged that Convar sent it back without= =20 one byte recovered! And I don't want to remember the 80GB WD drive that=20 lasted for 2 months...... Please, don't discuss about SCSI/ATA reliability, there are bad=20 designed/produced drives and there are good ones. You can't tell before,=20 only experience counts. I can say only good things about Seagates Barracuda 7200.8 drives for=20 example. Some dozends are running for two years without _any_ single drive= =20 failed. Also the Samsung (p)ATA drives are still running without any=20 single failure. And WDs once were perfect drices, but they also produced=20 crap. So you can't even be sure by vendor! =2DHarry P.S.: I'm planning to bring up a FreeBSD site which reflects hardware=20 compatibility experiences as well as long term experiences. I'll be back=20 if I have more... --nextPart4198030.vcGQEuDQAQ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBC+nvnBylq0S4AzzwRApQzAJsEw4AJBkTHgPbTdlaTGEEfwKNRMwCeLl/5 RrbKp35UoGr65kMdGXJFg84= =fy0W -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart4198030.vcGQEuDQAQ--
