2 maxtor drives on my desk.
1 = 7000hours use and clicking
1 = made in 2000, has 19500o (almost two hundred thousand) use and works fine.
Oh, and about 5 dead 1's downstairs.
They just seem to arse up for me, but i can't believe my 6 year old 1 is running and with 200k hours usage lol.

all i can say - is if your getting a hdd for a silent pc (e.g. media centre for living room) then dont go for a maxtor - go for seagate - my 200gb maxtor makes a hell of a noise, whereas my older (covered on the bottom) seagate doesnt make much noise atall
but....for a removable hdd - wow! good price dude!

EDIT!!! SERIOUSLY IMPORTANT - anyone notice it saying MAC ONLY?!?!?!?!?!?

that sucks!!! You ordered em, and its first come first served, you got there first, so you should av em all!
maxtor are fine IMO. I read about em being crap. But i got one, its fine. Ive only had loud Hard Drives, so i dunno what a quiet one sounds like

That doesn't make sense, you can only have 3 instead of 5, and thats ubnderstandable as it's just greedy, and they will prolly know with 5 your just buying and selling them on.
Where as they can plese some more customers by not selling you 5.
3 is still alot, why'd you say no? it's only 2 less.
Doesn't matter how loud it is really, if you got more then 2 fans running or sound on ya tv, ya can't hear it anyway.
