More bad luck

stupid crappy Maxtor

I lost yet another Maxtor hard drive last week, second one this year. A four month old 150GB DiamondMax died in February, but that one started making noises reminiscent of a baby in a blender, which I, of course, mostly ignored. Needless to say Maxtor is eating my RMA right now. To their credit it’s replacement (a 200GB DiamondMax Plus 9) lasted 175% longer finally crapping out right around 7 months. No idea why this last one broke. It just stopped working. When I pulled it out and analyzed it, the reason was obvious.

This is to say, I won’t be buying another Maxtor.
