(www.siliconmechanics.com). They're telling me that Seagate and some of
Western Digital's lines are 'server quality' drives. In particular, a
recent quote I got from them recommended nothing but Western Digital RE
series drives.
Good luck with the problem, I feel your pain brother.

I'll second that Tim, the RE range is what we use in our SATA servers -
they have a much larger MTBF rate than standard desktop drives, and are
designed to run 24/7. Specifically for the server market. I've never had
to return one yet.
I went to a Seagate seminar two weeks ago, and Seagate also has server
quality drives. I've never tried them though, so will not comment.
Regards,
Ed.
