According to filtered and analyzed data collected from participating StorageReview.com readers, the Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 is more reliable than 11% of the other drives in the survey that meet a certain minimum floor of participation.

According to filtered and analyzed data collected from participating StorageReview.com readers, the Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 's predecessor ( Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 ) is more reliable than 85% of the other drives in the survey that meet a certain minimum floor of participation.

I'd recommend the WD or one of the new Seagates over that...
