Without in any way promoting or endorsing a particular vendor, look at:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233126
and the reviews thereunder.
quote: 1 out of 5 eggs
Dead After Two Months
Pros: None
Cons: Unreliable right up until its death, a very expensive leason
Other Thoughts: At the price being charged for this item it should be
flawless
Manufacturer Response:
We prefer flawless too but, due to the laws of physics, pretty much
ANY product made with a semiconductors is going to have a minimum of a
2% failure rate. And, that is why we have our warranty. Please RMA the
drive and we'll replace it.
