Behold Two IBM Hard Drives... by crazysteve2006-11-19 12:55:59
  3/3 record by shaddai 2002-06-12 12:06:15
Pretty bad reliability. I had two IBM 75GXP's in a RAID 0 array a year ago. One went bad in August 2001. They replaced that one with a "servicable used part". Then another one went bad last month. The drive they replaced the first time also has bad sectors.

3 for 3 would usually be a good number. Not when it's IBM 75 GXP's.

I replaced them both with the Western Digital 120G special edition 8meg cache flavor. Better, more reliable (we hope), and a heck of a lot quieter!
