right now i'm running a store-bought 60gb maxtor 7.2k and a 100gb wd/8mb cache 7.2k, not having troubles with either. most of my experience with both has been very good, i had more troubles with 2000 sp1 messing up the files on the disks more than the hard drives crashing (we used all caviar 20gb 5.4k's at my old job.. a lot of them). they seemed to be pretty good drives, but of course i'll be quite nervous with my data until i can get a RAID setup running... i guess for now i'll cross my fingers and hope that things will remain okay until i get my lan server running.... $$$
