Review title: Very early drive failure
Product review: Have less than 1 year old HP desktop which came with two of these drives which I configured in a RAID1 array. Thank god for that! One drive failed after about 3 months since I live in Bermuda where warranty for stuff bought in the US is more pain than it's worth, I just bought this drive as a replacement in Nov 2009. That drive has now failed as well giving it a life span of less than 3 months. Again the RAID1 array has saved my data (and I back up too!) My desktop is not heavily used, so this drive should not have been taking any abnormal beating.If you are looking for a new (not replacement drive) I would recommend looking at a different drive. I work with in IT with Windows servers and desktops and this failure rate is abnormal in my experience with over 1000 desktops and servers.
