    Seagate, Maxtor, or Western Digital?

    Enough said, I suppose. I'm just wondering who has what opinions about which manufacturers. I've used all of them; I've had problems with all of them and success with all of them. Seagate claims to have the quietest drives on the market with the Barracudas. They all purport to have a...
