Although I have two of these drives at home in a RAID1, I'd recommend reading this before buying:

Thank you #1.
Ouch! Thanks for the link #1. Ben should really include that warning with each Seagate 7200.11 drive deal.
RUN FROM THESE FAR FAR AWAY.
the samsung for 70$ above might be better until they stop zune-ing their bacon
Firmware problems can be fixed by a reload (or, as said, by Seagate if the drive has "bricked"). A disk crashed cannot be repaired nor can all data be recovered. You cannot past the magnetic stuff back on the platter as was.
I have many Seagates and the hardware has been very reliable. My WD drives mostly die after a several years.
The above firmware problems are a shame, but not something that isn't easily fixed retroactively. Meanwhile, if cheap these are a good deal.
But Ben has posted YANBFB (yet another non-bargain from Ben). The price is poor compared to other recent deals. Buy this and you pay Ben for posting nonbacon and suffer the additional aggravation of a firmware load when the repair becomes available. Hardly a good transaction.
Thanks to everybody for the info. I have not loaded new firmware into my Seagates of this series and they are still working fine (on XP). I'lll hold off on any "updates" (euphemism in the sleezy software industry for their bug fixes) until stable fixes are available. THANKS to all.
price is crap, brick situation is being worked on according to possible engineers: http://it.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1098793&cid=26542735
comment is there supposedly from seagate.
horrrible reviews. Get a .10 or .12 instead.
It's covered by a 5 year warranty, not a 3 year as Ben listed it.
I have had tons of seagate drives, I love em. Except this. 7200.11 is CRAP.. AVOID.
Went through 3 in 1 year, the latest one is failing now.
