Currently the new HD doesn’t seem as hot as the old one, but today is a cool-ish day compared to the heat wave peaks we recently experienced ^^; Thanks for helping me install it :)

I agree that Seagate desktop drives are louder than Wester Digital drives. I am a big fan of Seagate drives but they did have a batch or two with quality issues. I agree with you that it is better to not get the latest and brand new in the market.

It may not be going just yet but it is better safe than sorry with personal and work data. I consider hard drives pretty cheap storage these days.

My preferred HDD is Seagate (although I have no reference for laptop drives). I’ve never had a problem with them yet. Although I admit I won’t buy a new model until it’s been in the market for awhile, so they iron out any problems. I remember when they were noisy has hell (before the GB days), but they never failed on me.

don’t you just hate it when harddrives decide it’s their time to go.
