Yea they are ok or get a Seagate. I bought a few for my work and they are used to back up our network and are fine. I'd not suggest going down the maxtor route.. just had 1 previously at cant say id ever get another one.

Maxtor is a HORRIBLE HD company.

WD is alright Seagate is the best out their atm however.

Perpendicular recording is the best thing they've ever done not to mention its pretty shock resistant and they break the least.
