Hopefully Seagate has stated to make better drives since all the 2,3 and 
4TB drives I bought for various servers I put them in.  I had a 100% 
failure rate after about 2 years with Seagate drives.  I'll never buy 
them again.  Thank goodness for RAID or it would have really been a mess 
when they died.  There's a reason they are cheap.
