General Comments

Well I have a very bad opinion about the Seagate Barracuda 7200.7, 160 GB because I changed 2 of them in 3 months (the first had a manufacturing flaw I guess, because it stopped working after 1 week; the second started to have bad sectors after 2 months, and 2 weeks after they first started to appear it stopped working). Maybe not all have had these problems but I changed my opinion about this brand.
