What a nonsense. Based on what experience You're as bad Seagate panel? Because when you time a Seagate has been received?
In all of the larger dealers with whom I have spoken to the Seagate had the smallest response rate, in addition to Western Digital.
Overall we can say that all the major manufacturer, more or less good build plates.
I currently do 20 plates S.2 machines, of which 16 Seagate (3 external), 2 external and 2 Maxtor Western Digital. I previously 1 Western Digital entered into, but fairly soon after the first installation on a RAID. Since the exchange of 1 year no problems. In a calculator with 4 Seagate in RAID 5 grouping, which I built for someone else, is after 1 month 1 Seagate failed, since the exchange is also ok. In one of my Linux server built factory Seagate's 5 through 6 years without interruption - to the main board is adopted (capacitor aging).
In my experience, go plates either in the first months after installation, or after many years of operation. A RAID-Verbund (1, 5, 6 or 10) is, in my opinion, in today's prices and capacity requirement - it is always something happening.

I can only: After all, what I of course, other computer-farmers, and traders of many years of experience know that Seagate is the first recommendation, followed of WD. And I personally always synonymous with Maxtor'm very good mileage, but was anyway of Seagate eaten.
