Title: went dead within 10 days
Review: This is my 8th Maxtor HD. I was very happy with the prior seven HDs (160GB, 250GB, two 300GB, and three 500GB). I am still useing the first generation 160GB and 250GB drivers for the video capturing purpose because they appear to have the least drop frame issue. Recently, I decided to migrate my 16 year worth family video to this 750GB driver to save space. I bought the drive about 10 days ago and migrated 450GB of the video files onto it immediately. Today, when I tried to turn it on for the second time, I found it is dead. The white LED blink for a second then went blank. Now I have a much more serious problem than returning it to the retailer. I lost all of my family videos. Many of them simply have no backups elsewhere. This is the first Maxtor that lets me down, once and for all. Follow up: Maxtor's warrenty does not include the data recovery. Optional data recovery costs $1,000 extra.
