I'm going to guess that most manufacturers have developed a bad reputation for themselves, at some time or other. (IBM deathstars, anyone?) You never quite trust them, after those sort of experiences. Yet it's a fair bet that over time, technology and manufacturing changes will be very different from one batch of drives, to another. And even more so for different drives over the years. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.6.11-5.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jan 8 21:40:51 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
