that's how they earned the nick "Seize-gate" LOL. Also with SSD drives priced so low why would anyone bother with a disk-based system these days?.

For every drive model there are good and bad drives. I have five of the infamous 1.5tb 7200rpm Seagate drives that have lasted five years in a server without issue. It is luck of the draw, just some decks have more joker cards than others.

And SSDs aren't nearly cheap enough to use for media storage yet. Replacing my 60tb worth of hard drives would cost a fortune. Hell I am waiting for 1TB SSDs to finally get below $200 so I can get one to put my Steam games on. It will be a decade before the hard drive is close to dead.

I'd have to say Gigabyte. Still running a fossil socket 775 board from 2008, not a single issue, dead port, nothing. Plus their support page is very comprehensive and is easy to use.

I am a huge Gigabyte motherboard fan too, mostly because of how well they work in hackintoshes. I will pay extra to get a Gigabyte even though their bios sucks.
