[TriLUG] Hardware: Most reliable IDE HD brand?

[Roy Vestal]

I personally like Western Digital, IBM, and Seagate in that order. I
recommend staying away from Maxtor and Quantum if you can.

FYI...Seagate bought out Conner a few years ago and the old "Conner folks"
make the IDE's, Seagate just sells them with the Seagate name on them. The
old "Seagate folks" just make the Seagate SCSI's.
