The biggest problems thus far we had were with Samsung disks. I haven't seen such a high fail rate in all my life. About 70% of the 100 disks we got failed within a year. Too bad Seagate took them over. I can only hope that Seagate's manufacturing an QA doesn't suffer because of that. > > -- > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Emmanuel Florac | Direction technique > | Intellique > | <eflorac@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > | +33 1 78 94 84 02 > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Yours truly _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
