I was thinking of ditching my 2 external drives and getting the D-Link DNS 323 network attached storage box with 2 1TB Seagate 7200.11 drives. But after this incident, I don't trust Seagate anymore (even though they've said they will provide a data recovery program if the drives are dead - the issue doesn't delete the data).

I was going to get 2 1TB WD Caviar Green Power drives instead, but it sounds like it's luck of the draw whether your drives arrive DOA or if they run forever perfectly no matter the manufacturer.

EDIT: I think I have a Seagate 7200.10 or 7200.11 in my primary computer -- will be checking it tonight, Thanks for the link
