Sadly all drives suck, so if you like your data and uptime you double them up in redundant RAID. If you have a lot of PC's running linux I strongly suggest net booting them. If you're bios supports PXE, and you happen to run a debian (-based) distro, it will take a few hours to switch over. I've done this recently, because a drive failed in my test pc, so I can save you some time: http://jukie.net/~bart/blog/nfsroot-on-debian -Bart -- WebSig: http://www.jukie.net/~bart/sig/
