Subject: [Hampshire] Replacement hard drive question

Hello LUGgers

Not quite an out and out Linux question, but it is related (running Centos
5.1 at the moment).

I have a failing hard drive, and I am going to replace it, but I am at a
loss as to which brand to choose from.

Does anyone have any horror stories about certain brands of hard drive, and
would avoid at all costs ?
Can anyone recommend any good SATA models, specifically ones that are quite
fast ?

Thanks - Tony Lambert
