A UK Data recovery service has this remark "Please note that all modern hard disk drives are manufactured to very high standards, fail infrequently and have very similar rates of reliability." |

| 551794 | 2007-05-22 06:52:00 | Brand is hitachi HDD is dead Thats what the shop tells me I too have a dead Seagate 160 Gig hard drive. Came out of my other Desktop. I put this in a enclosure and it was running on a computer which was not mine. USB I/O. Died during use there. At this time I am not game to put another hard drive in the same enclosure as it may be the enclosure that fried it. I have a few 2.1 gig drives one of which I could use to test. I know the drive itself is fried as I took the drive out of the enclosure and connected to my current PC via the ATA cable. Not that I am against Seagate and if I bought another hard drive tomorrow then I would be wanting a Seagate. |
