I have a 8 year old 40gb Acom external which is still going strong and gets used every day!!!! I am able to boot to it and just keeps going (like the EverReady Bunny). It's big (twice the size of a new lacie porsche piano black 1TB. It is such a classic and has served me so well, I will never part with it. Western Digital is also a great drive. Seagate and Maxtor drives have been a nightmare and very problemsome! Hope this helps. Acom Data drives are the best.

Basically the computer will stop recognizing the hard drive. The hard drive itself is fine (spins up, and your data is still there) but you can't access anything on it. Due to the lack of response to the situation I will be avoiding the Seagate brand name. I now use mostly Western Digital. I've never had a problem with any of there hard drives.

Nowadays I mostly use Western Digital and Fujitsu hard drives. I also used to be a fan of Seagate, but after a few broken hard drives I gave them up.
