I thought that was what the List was for during the winter... to see how
many different opinions can exist on any one subject ;-)
================
OK, now how many opinions can we get on this?
Which brand is better - WD or Seagate? By looking at the reviews, it seems
there are better reviews for Seagate. Or are they just more vocal? I saw a
lot of gripes about WD quality. I also saw good mention of LaCie, but there
wasn't a lot of talk about them either way.
May the war begin....

P.S. I've been using SanDisk flash drives for a while with no problems. I
like the titanium Cruzer.
