- I'll never buy a Seagate product again. I bought a 600 MB, which
- developed stiction within four months. I *then* discovered I had only
- a 90 day warranty, and paid $710 to have it fixed! It was running a
- mail machine 24 hrs a day at the time. When I got it back, I moved it
- to a Mac that runs several hours a day, and it has been working okay
- since then. I keep my fingers crossed!
-
- Of course, this may be just an isolated incident, but I'm not going to
- give them another chance. As I said, never again!
