Sorry if this has been discussed before, but i searched and couldn't find anything.
I wasn't as in-depth into computers when the IBM "deathstar" fiasco occured.
Recently i've been invovled in a project that i need a couple notebook drives to complete (doing it on the cheap, so E-bay, refurbs, etc) did the IBM travelstar drives suffer from the same syndrom that afflicted the Deskstar drives? I'm thinking of getting a couple 30GB travelstar drives for my project and I am just worried about them suddenly crapping out on me.
Thanks!
Cheers!
