[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1914804, member: 396914"] Please don't misrepresent what I have said, Randy. I've never said the drives are perfectly fine, I've said that in single use, non-RAID environments where speed is not an issue they are ok to use, And nothing more. They are NOT perfectly fine because they are slow and don't work well in RAID arrays. I also am not giving out legal advice. Another misrepresentation. I just commented on the settlement. And I call $4 per drive a "nominal sum" for the issue. Your valuation may be different, but if a drive costs $150 and I get $4 from this settlement, that's not much of a "big win." As for "shyster" the dictionary says this: Not all lawyers are shysters, just as not all doctors are quacks, or all salespersons snake-oil sellers. But there are shysters, and there are quacks and there are snake-oil sellers in the world. So, I will assume you are an ethical, scrupulous lawyer and that as such you are not a shyster and you should want shysters drummed out of your profession. [/QUOTE]
