I miss Maxtor.
I have several Maxtor drives, and they haven’t given me problems.
But that’s because their quality was high.
The newer stuff seems to be manufactured as cheaply as possible.
Unless you want to fork out for Solid State Drives.

Yep - I use to be a fan of Maxtor- but then they were bought up by by Seagate and quality dropped almost immediately. I had two drives bought only months apart - same basic drive model, both labeled as Maxtor - the first, manufactured before Seagate was still going strong when I sold the machine. The second drive - one of the first after the acquisition by Seagate, was a dude, and the warranty replacement was just as bad.
