Up until a few years ago, I replaced more Maxtor drives than any other. That being said, once Maxtor acquired Quantum their quality went way up. I have used Maxtor for a few years now with good results.
Also, if you are using 2k or XP you shouldn't need anything other than your "Computer Management" tools to handle your drives.
