No one really knows, IBM never fessed up on that.
They in fact claimed that there wasnt any problem with that series.
They lied.
The Deskstar 60 GXP is the best EIDE HD around as was the 75GXP before
it. Any attempt to slime the best EIDE HD around or its predecessor
is a disservice to the entire HD user community. There are few
credible reports of 75GXP failures and many blatantly bogus ones.
There are no reliability issues with any recent IBM drive.
For the vast majority the 75GXP is fast and reliable.
Nothing is wrong as generally they work just fine. There are very
small numbers of reliable reports of 75GXP problems.
They just keep makin the best drives around.
Did your mamma's dog also have a bad batch of 75GXPs?
There is no well known and reputable website nor news source that
confirms any kind of problem with IBM Deskstar HDs. It's just a few
web wackos making bogus claims.
Nope there's nothin there but just wacko slime.
Most everyone reports no problems at all and they are fast.
Your anti-IBM slime campaign has now been widely discredited.
That's flat false. Only the anit-IBM slimers so claim.
Nope, there is a small cult of anti-IBM slimers running amok.
The 75GXP is a great drive and very reliable.
There are generally no problems with the Deskstar 75GXP. There are a
few attempting a smear campaign.
Ignore the wacko stalker and cult members.
Said by a card carrying member of the anti-IBM slime campaign.
Any given drive may fail in the field. In general the Deskstar 75GXP
works very well and is quiet and reliable.
The 75GXP and now 60GXP are reliable and fast drives and there is NO
reputable information suggesting otherwise.
Simply a slime attempt.
Compared to the number shipped there are in fact very FEW reports of
failures.
There has been an ongoing slime attempt for several months now
emanating from a storage site's forum. First the claims were that the
Deskstar 75GXP had high failure rates and now that they couldn't make
that bogus claim stick they've come up with this latest batch of slime
against the 75GXP. It all comes from that weak storage site. It's
all flat false.
The burden of proof is on you and the other slimers.
The anti-IBM slime wackos are getting shrill and desperate as it
steadily
becomes apparent that Deskstar 75GXPs don't NOT tend to fail and the
wackos are being publicly eviscerated and humiliated.
Fortunately they all line up on a daily basis for all to see who and
what they are.
There no smoke but just wacko gibber.
That's just an anti-IBM slime campaign. The 75GXP including the 45GB
is a good drive and many many use it with great success.
Wacko. Anyone involved in a HD popularity poll is simply wacko.
There are no significant problems with IBM HDs as has been clearly
demonstrated.
Another post by the same wacko slimers.
IBM HDs are very reliable and there are few problems.
Clueless. What if the 44% is the same six guys making multiple posts
which is obviously the case with the slimer who originated from that
website in the beginning..
All bogus claims. The 75GXP works fine.
And like other members of the slime cult, you'd like to make the
number of IBM failures look much larger than it is. Get a life.
IBM HDs work just fine. There is no well known & reputable website nor
news source that sugests otherwise. There is just a few wacko slimers
trying to suggest that there are major problems with IBM HDs. Such is
utterly bogus. They hate the fact that I've exposed their slime and
so they stalk me at every opportunity.
Pure nonsense. The slimers claim that these things are failing by the
tuckload. It is clearly obvious to everyone that they are NOT failing
in any significant quantities. The slime campaign is now debunked and
the wackos went off to Jonestown and did a cult poll in frustration.
All possible and could even explain a few multidrive failure reports.
BUT othing supports an kind of mass failures that the wackos are
claiming. Basically the 75GXP and 60GXP are fast and reliable HDs and
there isn't the slightest evidence to suggest otherwise.
However in this case there is wide spread verification that the 75GXP
is very reliable and works just fine.
Clueless nonsense. IBM HDs work just fine and are very reliable.
The clueless ninnies lineup up for us. Not one can provide any
reference to any well known reputable website nor news source
suggesting any problem with IBM HDs. The wackos have been well
identified now.
Utter nonsense. The 75GXP is very relaible and a few wackos have a
posting history of such anti-IBM slime like you.
