Good ATA 133 hds available?

I have seen only a few hds offering ATA133 out so far. Maxtor is one company. I have had many Maxtor drives and alot of problems from them.
Alot of people don't like IBM drives for some reason but I have had a 75GXP 45Gig with no problems on an ftp site for a long while. I haven't seen an IBM ATA133 drive.
I would like to try Seagate out again cause I heard some good things about them, although I had problems in the past, it's been awhile.

I would just like a reliable and fast hd able to do ATA133. Any ideas since ATA133 is still new??
 
I doubt you'll see drives that make good use of ATA/133 for a long, long time yet. Also ATA/133 does not have universal support.

When IBM released the 75GXP series with "ATA/100" support, those units couldn't make use of that bandwidth. Unless you plan to do something funky with raid, just buy whatever is best today. Storagereview.com is good place to start.
