Vilken datormodell och hårdiskfabrikat avser du ? Blir lättare att ge råd & svar om vi vet detta. Är det en Quicksilver eller en Mirrored Double Drive. Har den god ventilation i rummet ? Är disken från Maxtor så kanske den ingår i de tusentals diskar som nu visat sig ha allvarliga fel. Är du 100% säker på att det inte är fläktar som du hör varva upp ?
- Maxtor in trouble - Lionel - 22:13:36
IBM were blamed for their defectuous HDs some years ago. Unfortunately for Maxtor is would seem they face the same trouble today.
- The firm has refunded 47 millions € to clients for faulty HDs. The return rate would be as high as 5.5% ! (Seagate 2.4 and Hitachi 2%).
- Announcing their results yesterday, the company acknowledged having sold 400,000 faulty HDs to a gross reseller. Dell, the final client, of course refused to buy them. Maxtor results were really poor on top of that.
- Maxtor reportedly try to sell those to Europen clients who now are so angry, do not want to work with them any more.
This is bad omen for the survival of a company that's on one of the most difficult markets of the computer industry.
