This is why it just kills me when I see so many of my digital photography friends who don’t have good backup strategies. It is my opinion that every hard drive will eventually fail. One thing I will tell you is that I have had drives fail over the years. They are not quite as good as Seagate drives but have served me reasonably well. I’ve also got a bunch of Maxtor drives as well. I’ve had several LaCie’s fail and the I/O device errors when copying to or from them are simply horrid.

I’ve got over 4TB of personal storage right now and when these 1TB drives are out I’ll be looking forward to simplifying my set up by retiring some of my older 250GB drives that store photos today. As someone who routinely shoots 8 gigs of photos a day, my personal storage needs are intense. Still, I definitely have to hot donkey this one.
