I have four dead drives in my storage box. One maxtor, two WD, one a hitachi laptop deathstar.
Seagate is amazing. The only problem I've had is when I smashed the drive electronics on my 80GB drive I'm running. Uhhh.. it still works, but it has trouble now and then.
SATA is definitely the way to go. Easier cabling, and most of all, easier to build snap-together RAID solutions. Plus, isn't SATA hot swappable?
