I am getting two fujitsu 18 gig 10k rpm scsi 3 hard drives and was wondering what kind of quality fujitsu drives are?
 
Well, Dell uses them in their servers so that alone says something about their quality. Also, I would say that they are on par with Seagate drives in terms of performance and reliability.
 
Like them a lot because of the "quiet factor" and good reliability (YMMV), but one thing to check if anyone plans to buy some from an online vedor is the warranty.

In Europe at least they do not let you RMA with Fujitsu directly so you have to go via the distributor (which can be a blessing or a curse -- most likly the latter, sadly).
 
ok cool because ive got 2 18 gigs coming my way and i havent really heard a lot about the fujitsu brand. i know that maxtors are good for ide and thought that seagate was best for scsi.
 
Extremely good IMHO.
Fujitsu's long been very well respected in the industry for their SCSI drives. Fujitsu has an excellent marketshare in the high end SCSI Server drives.
Desktop performance is usually decent, and reliability and noise levels are typically excellent but they've always really excelled in server situations.

Fujitsu would personally be my #1 pick for a drive for a database server or anything that saw extremely high disk usage and I/O counts.
