Depending how much cash you are willing to part yourself with.

If thats no option, get the 60GXP, they are great, fast drives, and mostly,
the probs were with the previous 75GXP version, on the other hand, if you
want value for money and also great performance, cant go past WD400BB...your
choice...60GXP is just slightly better.

Id stay away from Maxtor and Quantum...
