It has been my experience over the last couple of years that *all* hard drives suck equally. Since QC is a barrier to lower pricing, and since gigs per dollar is virtually the *only* factor that consumers consider when buying storage, there is apparently little to no QC being exercised on product being shoved out the door. So buy the most storage for the least amount of cash, and pray.
On a related note, does anyone else find that floppies are about unusable these days, even right out of the box? I throw away about 1/3 to 1/2 of floppies I try to use anymore because they are flat nonfunctional.
