    I'm in the market for a few new drives and looked at this model a few days ago. Even in 2010, it still has issues according to the user feedback.

    Too bad, but my data is worth a little extra care.

    I just got the Seagate external 1.5 TB drive. It's starting to click.

    Strange that so many people are having trouble with them, the reviews for the 1TB version are much better.

    I wonder if teachers will believe the "Seagate ate my homework!" excuse?

    The reviews on NewEgg remind me of the original Maxtor drives from years ago.
    They were such junk with a huge early failure rate.
    Didn't Seagate buy Maxtor?
