I rember back in 95ish...... Packard Bell had more repair problems then AST. But then again...Packard Bell sold how many times more PC's than AST?

Not to say that PB ever made a decent product either but my point is that there are more WD drives in PC's than Maxtor drives so you are bound to see more problems.

The last time I used a maxtor drive, my Pentium 166 was top of the line. Friends and family have also used them over the years and most of them had issues too.
