It's funny how I know a lot of people who trust Seagate more than Hitachi.

Unless I missed some huge breakthrough that Seagate has made in recent times (plenty possible, I don't keep up with it):

They're all retards. And you can tell them that if you want.

I use to swear by SG. I had problems with both WD and Hitachi, then I tried SG and they were great...until they started to such monkey balls like a boss. Maybe those people have some older drives from when SG knew how to make HDD instead of door stops?

Freedom Kira:
Seagate's stuff used to be solid, back in the pre-TB HDDs. It was around when drives started to hit the 1TB mark that Seagate's reputation took a huge hit. A lot of Seagate's old <500GB drives are probably still alive and kicking today, but their drives from around that particular period were known to cause all kinds of problems.

I think WD and HItachi were more reverse, where their reputations now are better than they were before.

nstgc:
I looked closer and it definitely was made in a SG factory. If I just run some tests on it would that compensate for their shitty QC? If so, what would you guys suggest?
