Maxtor aren't reliable in my opinion had 2 fail as externals luckily both types I noticed the screeching sound and was able to copy the majority of data off before It completely broke
maxtor was taken over by seagate so you dont get maxtor drives anymore
No, you can still get Maxtors. It's just being sold under Seagate.
My MOBO is GIGABYTE - Product - Motherboard - Specification
The hard drive I'm thinking of getting is
Computer hardware and software at amazing prices, available online from Scan Computers UK
Would my MOBO be able to run it? I never made my pc so I don't really know much.
Thanks again you guys are really helpful.
You're weird you dislike western digital (which people usually like), you love maxtor (which everyone hates).....I would stay away from all WD drives except the raptor. Ive litterally seen dozens go bad all around me. I do however run a raptor drive in my desktop because of the good reviews and so far so good for that drive. Any other wd id run from. Ive like 5 myself in a years time. Maxtor drives ive only ever seen one fail out of dozens from people I know.
