 + Show Spoiler + I'm not saying 90% of people wouldn't have been fucked the same way you were (as is the case in my analogy), I'm just saying why advertise it hahaha. | ||

Harddrives fail, its a sad fact. So always backup important information instead of go whine and blame someone innocent like this time. | ||

Hitachi bought out the IBM storage division, responsible for the worst hard drive ever created (Deskstar/Deathstar.) HDs are definitely hit or miss though, but Hitachi isn't generally considered a top 3 manufacturer. | ||

They were very susceptible to overheating and will die more often than their counterparts. With that said, deskstars that were kept at cool temperatures work flawlessly and just as well as other manufacturer drives. Hitachi isnt top 3? Please give me a list of your top 3 manufacturers for HDDs. | ||

Hitachi would be #3 only because there are only 3 major companies, but Hitachi drives are TERRIBLE, just a single look at the reviews on newegg will show you that. | ||

If it's 7 months old, you can probably go to Apple and get it changed and recovered for free - Apple are very good at customer service. | ||

I just went there and check, most of their drives received 4 or 5 egg rating and some dropped as low as 3 but no more. Indicating at least a 60% satisfaction from users and majority being 80% or more. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=40000014&Description=hitachi&name=Internal Hard Drives Aside from pointing at reviews from random users on the internet, please provide benchmarks or reliable data on Hitachi drives being "TERRIBLE". | ||
