Hi,

Just wondering if the travelstar drives are prone to the same sudden death
as the deskstar (deathstar) drives ? The drive in question that I'm looking
at is a 40GB laptop drive, part number: 07N9910

Uhm, no... Deathstars had a special place in the annals of drive
reliability. They were fast, but unfortunately the glass media wasn't as
reliable as IBM had hoped.

Indeed, but doesnt change the well known fact that all types of hdd
are prone to sudden death.
