some maxtor drives are really good....my sister still have her 16 gb maxtor in her computer since 2002...it's a duron 900 mhz.....the drive still works perfect after 7-8 years ...My sister still use that computer almost every day for chat and other stupid things
however I had a 40 gb maxtor drive which died in 2 years
I think that all depends of the model,stress of the drive and other factors
also I know that hardisks on women computers last longer than hardisks on males' computers
