[QUOTE="technologist, post: 157870, member: 4134"] Apple does not make the hard disks it uses. It buys them from other companies, just like Dell or HP or anyone. And any of these companies will tell you exactly the same thing after the warranty runs out. If you buy an HP or Dell or Sony PC, and the hard drive dies on the 366TH day of ownership, unless you've bought an extended warranty, you're up a creek. There is nothing special about Apple's policies on this. You have every right to be upset and frustrated, but hard drive failures are an unfortunate fact of life. Every hard drive [i]will[/i] fail sooner or later. Some fail after a month, some after a decade. [/QUOTE]
