Default My new Maxtor 120gig SATA drive died after 2 weeks! Read!

Maxtor drives are plain trash in my opinion. I bought a new 40Gb for a boot
drive and it died 2 days after I installed it. I also had a friend who had
5 (that's right...FIVE) Maxtors to fail within a year. I do have one 40gb
that has lasted a couple of years, but both of my only others died quick
deaths. No more Maxtors for me....ever.
