Boy, there has been a lot of noise about hard drive recently. I would like
to ask a possibly silly question of the folks out in netland. What criteria
do you use to buy a hard drive?
Just to get things rolling, here's mine in order of priority:
1) Compatibility
2) Reliability
3) Performance
4) Price
Just to put things in proper perspective. I am an engineer and dearly
value the data I have on my hard drive. It's something I don't want to
worry about. A lot of net-people sound like they are loosing sleep
worrying about their hard drive (i.e. will it power-up tomorrow?, should
I have saved my data today?, what was that sound I heard?, why is it
screaming?, if I loose that data,.....)
I am very interested in buying criteria, please post or mail and I will
summarize.
