Looks like my PPD will suck for a few days

WD CAVIAR GREEN 2.0TB 7200/64MB/SATA2# Dieing

slowly getting some data back, Was coping it to my WD CAVIAR GREEN 1.5TB 7200/64MB/SATA2 and then it went missing and windows said "You need to format this drive before you can use it" so I unplugged (its on hot swap sata ports) I restarted my PC then plugged it back in again and there was a nice empty 1.5TB HDD

I'm really going off Western Digital at the moment.

Thinking of picking up some Seagate HDD's next week, Whats your opinion?

 

[kup]

Seagate and Samsung, no question about it, I have some Seagate Barracuda drives that are about 6 years old still running like day one.
