| 871012 | 2010-03-29 23:56:00 | Have decided that I need to get a bigger hard drive for my laptop because I am constantly running out of space. Hearing what people have been saying I have decided to stick with Western Digital. What do people think of this hard drive (pricespy.co.nz)? |

| 871015 | 2010-03-30 01:52:00 | They had an issue with a firmware release a while back (SD15) but that has been fixed for some time now. I've seen plenty of in warranty WD drives with problems in the last few years, from what I've seen Seagate are still more reliable. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 871016 | 2010-03-30 02:10:00 | oh ok, completely changed my mind about seagate then. | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 871017 | 2010-03-30 02:34:00 | I thought people were saying stay away from seagate hard drives? I have had no problems with Seagate hard drives and if I wanted another that brand is what I'd get. |
