RE: Hard drive failures

I'm not sure I would recommend a Samsung drive. My HM641JI is dying a slow and very painful death. Maybe it's because in September and October it was running in a 40F environment and ran at 15c, or because the low cache (8mb) just affects everything I do. I'm not sure, but I'm getting rid of this thing anyway.

My Seagate 7200.11 worked for a year and a half at 5400rpm, until the motherboard failed. And the 120GB WD IDE drive in my mom's old Dell XPS Gen 2 was corrupted in 2010 (7 year lifetime).

Go for Seagate or WD, maybe not Samsung.

Are you cooling the hard drives?

Still not a good driver
