Hi Zred1,

Both drives are excellent. I'm a Maxtor fan, so I'd lean toward the Maxtor. Did they put up a Best Buy in your area yet? Haven't been out that way for years.

If so, that would be a good place to check out, as my local Best Buy sells them both, and often run sales on them. For example, I recently picked up my Maxtor 120 gig, ATA 133 w/ 8MB for $129 after rebates.

But WD is there too, if you lean that way. You just have to watch for sales. It seems like the have one every few months and I think they're due for one.

HTH
