Hi, guys:

I have one 160GB Maxtor and one 120GB Western Digital(both are 8MB cach). I am thinking to buy another HD to setup a raid 0. Would you please which one is better for Raid?

Thanks for your thoughts. Personally, i like the WD. It runs quietly and faster. But i read a lot of people complaining the WD failed on them. I don't want the raid drive fail too often.

I have six hard drives in my system now, all of them western digital, half of them over three years old.

Western digital is a popular brand so when someone has a problem with a hard drive its likely to be a Western Digital just because there are so many out there.
