Title: Never again! Long delays, and unreliable!
Review: I have the 500GB version of this Seagate drive. What a colossal disappointment -- after just a mere 10 minutes or so of non-use, the drive spins down. It's a six-to-eight second wait for the drive to spin back up for the most trivial of tasks, such as a displaying a file open or save dialog.THAT was aggrevating. But what is infuriating is the Seagate's unreliability! Just a couple of months into use it died with a badly corrupted directory. Reading through the comments here and on this model with other size drives I see that this experience is common rather than unusual.I never bought Seagate before, but I had thought it had a good reputation. I'll never buy Seagate again!
