Two Bricks 

In Seagate customers swamped by Barracuda drive failures

Thumb Down

I just sent back a 1TB and a 500GB. Two somewhat different problems, but both bricks.

I have 4 WD drives, and 6 Barracudas. I was told the WDs are inferior and unreliable, but they are still going, nearly a year later (constant on), and I have had two of six Seagates croak within two months.

Ironic, eh?
