    Thinking of buying 4 of these 2.5" HDD´s ( Seagate Momentus 7200.4 ST9500420AS ). Untill i read about high failure rates from a source that i dont trust that much.

    My concearn is that ive had a few failing seagate drives some years ago.
    I want to give it a go, but is curious about if any of you guys have had any problems with them.

    Thank in advance :D :thumb:

    no problems here (but only one seagate), but seagate is a brand i stay away from usually.

    Exactly my point. But these drives have recieved many rewards. However ive read a few people complaining about their drive going dead quite quickly.

    Just wanted to ear your oppinions. Its rather sad buying 4 of these if they suck :D

    Anyone else ?
