So far the reviews look good.  I haven't used one.  I have used mostly
WD drives lately, although I do have a couple of 80GB Diamond Plus 9 I
think they are.  Other than one failing the day I installed it out of
the batch, the rest have worked great.

It seems that generally Maxtor's merge with Quantum has managed to keep
producing very nice drives.
