I had an internal Seagate (less than a year old) that failed. It contained a year's worth of my photos. The computer warned me that its failure was imminent, so I barely got the stuff off. Then, it failed. I was almost prepared to send the drive to a recovery lab, but my fortunes were with me before that expensive move.


I use WD Green drives. Never had an issue with them yet.
