[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1638905, member: 24160"] I like to think one of the reasons WD went after HGST was to get hold of their tech, manufacturing process &/or parts manufacturers that was giving them the lead in failure rates. I don't think WD made many changes related to the hardware being put out by HGST. Toshiba went into almost all of my custom built rigs from the lates 90s to around '04. They were consistently putting out the fastest drives among the crowd with the exception of WDs Velociraptor 10,000 rpm drives and at this point, haven't a clue why I never went with one of those.
