PT - Re: "I agree with your "two kinds of HDD" line and routinely back up my data - the real value of what is contained within a computer, especially for business." That's a good policy - one which very few people follow - until its too late. As for premium hard disks, IBM was considered the PREMO suppliers - and I used them exclusively - until recently. There were rumours about failing IBM 307xxx drives (also known as 75GX series) on the "net" for about a year - and I own two of them. About 3 months ago, I started getting read errors on one of them.... Paul
