Hard disk

While the prices of hard disks have gone up by nearly 100% i.e. double in past six months the quality has nose dived. I have already replaced three of Western Digital make within a period of a year. An external Hard disk (model X-320) of Hitachi also broke down in about a year and I had to send for its replacement but the worst part is that the replacement sent to me was also broken and I had to send it again on the same day in same packing for replacement. Never buy a HITACHI disk. Today I received the replacement. It did not work on desktop but worked on Laptop. Let’s hope it will work.

  1. The drive is not working on any Desktop. But it is working on laptops only. I do not know why. Saw this link http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1508348 but it did not help. The HitachiGST FAQ states that the power supply is inadequate. I wonder how to increase power supply.
