I always go for Seagate or failing that Western Digital in all our servers and workstations. Like bn3 only drives not had any issues with.

The server grade Seagates always end in 'NS' at the end of the part number, for example their ITB Seagate Barracuda ES drive part number is ST31000340NS. The server grade ones cost a bit more, but if you are after reliability then they are the ones to go for.

Never really rated Samsung and would certainly stay well clear of Maxtor as nearly every Maxtor harddrive I have ever used has failed.

Whilst not the server grade drives, I've been putting seagate barracuda drives in every PC I've built over the last 8 years or so and have never had a problem with any of them.

Try and get the Seagates that still have 5 year warranties.
