    If you're looking for the best reliability, you might want to consider drives that aren't aimed at the consumer market. For example:

    WD RE4

    (WDC RE4 drives.)

    They are more expensive, though.

    Great Hard Drive and works great. It is on sale for $75 however with the 64MB Cache and the 5 Year Warranty where as the other Hard Drives you only get 3 years you can't beat it. Just look up to see what is diffrent with the Caviar Black and you will want to buy it.
