i just quit maxtor a month ago and almost got a job at seagate...oh the irony :rofl: all of my old coworkers think i knew about it and escaped :doh:

Maxtor was the best. Other companies gave you 5 or 10 year warrenties. Maxtor had lifetime. I found a maxtor hd that had been dropped. We got it from my dads old company a long time ago. Maxtor gave us a new one, no questions asked.
