Just got one of these from NewEgg.com for use in a Mac Pro. Huge disappointment. It reports itself as model ST3_INVALID_PFM. A quick Google search indicates it needs a firmware reflash, and that can only happen on a PC. ...and NewEgg has a 15% restocking fee for refunds. Wanna bet that the replacement will have the same problem? So... I guess there's a Western Digital, Hitachi, or Samsung drive in my future. ...after I find a new supplier. -- RAM |

I too have decided never to buy Seagate ragain. I have one now, and I'm not happy with it. Plus considering I need higher capacity than my current 300gb, I've been looking at the 640gb Western Digital. I'm waiting for the contest to end before I order it though. Because I'd still be happy with a WD 500gb intead. |

I take it you don't have a buddy with a pc?
I've never had any issues with seagate. I like them and WD, but they are usually the only drives I buy. I'd love to get my hands on a Samsung. |
