Me either...I've been using Seagate HDDs for the past 4 years because they're been performing well for me so far. But if their quality control starts to go downhill I'll start using some other brand that has a good track record at that time...who knows, that might be Hitachi or Samsung.

I'm not the type to stay loyal to any one brand, I just use what works for me. Over the years I've used Conner, Maxtor, Western Digital, Fujitsu, Quantum, IBM and Seagate hard drives. I'd stick with one brand until I start to get problems with them and then move on to another brand until I start to get problems with that brand. So far I've had a really good experience with Seagate hard drives as none of them have died yet in the 4 years I've been installing them. The only other brand I used that didn't give me problems was Fujitsu. So as long as Seagate hard drives are reliable and don't die prematurely I'll keep using and recommending them.
