"I would hate to see people make purchases based on the results of a poll like this one. I mean no offence, but hard drive biases tend to be similar to network hardware biases: I like <this> because my experience with it has been great, hate <that> because my experience with it has been awful. Know what I mean? People are pretty opinionated about Belkin vs NetGear vs D-Link vs LinkSys, just as they are about Seagate vs WD vs Hitachi vs Lacie vs Maxtor."
well said :-)
"My own bias is such that I'd stay away from most of the generic brands that you might find at an electronics retailer."
another good point
Actually I put the poll in to stir up conversation on peoples experiences with different brands.
I agree people should not rely solely on the poll for buying advice.
Good Post :-)
