    I have some of the troublesome Seagates but I don't have them in
applications where they would be expected to cause trouble. I use one
of the newer Seagates just fine as one of my recording drives.  

    I don't have a strong brand preference and just tend to buy on price
and then keep a close watch on drive diagnostics. I could certainly see
why you might want to avoid Seagate these days.
