I always preferred Seagate and WD over other HDD manufacturers.
Lets just hope that this wont cause a permanent price rise in the HDD market!

I always get worried when I get used to one brand of hard drive and then switch over to something else. But I put in a new Seagate in my rig last summer, and so far so good (hadn't owned Seagate in quite some time).
