    I had a bad experience with Western Digital eons ago, and I'm still holding a grudge. But I don't think brand names really matter anymore.

    I use Seagate drives, because at one point they were the quietest. I've also got a couple of Barracudas from the 90s that are still going strong.

    Currently its better to go with WD as the newer version of seagate drives are having many errors.

    Seagate is the brand of my choice and it never created any problem for me. Maxtor is the second best bet.

    I've been using Seagate(IDE/SATA). I really don't have any complaints using this peripheral. :D
