    The models I mentioned?

    Talking only original DEC disks for the moment, I have some rebadged
    Seagates and some rebadged Quantums, though more of the former than the
    latter. The only disk I've ever had fail was a rebadged Seagate
    Barracuda (2 GB). Small-number statistics, of course. Is the
    traditional wisdom Seagate better than Quantum better than Connor borne
    out by the experience of others here?
