Hi Guys,

   I need to buy a 2 Gig EIDE drive and I have a choice between:

   Quantum
   Seagate
   Maxtor

   I was hoping to buy the Quantum as that was the largest for my price range.

   Can you guys let me know if you had any preferences, and which one would
be the best drive in terms of reliability and abilty to withstand alot of 
pounding, I was wanting to use it for a news feed so it will need to be 
pretty robust.



Many Thanks
