Add me to the list of failed drives

Date of Review:  Aug 19, 2006
Review: Well, I had high hopes for the new "SATA" drive from Maxtor, the Diamond Max Plus 9. It died this morning after only a few months in my Dell E510. This was a backup drive. I'll put in for warranty replacement, and probably look for something else to...

I just keep purchasing a Maxtor!!!

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: I think that buying any Maxtor hard drive is the right decision. This one is the quietest yet.
Review: Newegg.com is a great place to purchase computer hardware for cheap. Their service and delivery is impeccable.

I recently completed a machine. An AX4SPE Max Motherboard: Intel 2.6 GB P4: Creative Labs Audigy 2: ATI Radeon AIW 9600 Pro:...

WARNING: It's junk!

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2004
Review: There's another separate chain of reviews on this hard drive; please refer to it as it contains many more reviews. In short form: This drive suffers from premature failure. Expect the unexpected, ie. total loss of data as your harddrive packs it in,...

Unreliable

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2004
Review: This weekend one of my two Maxtor SATA drives decided to give it up on me after only fifteen months of infrequent use (less than 10 hours/week). Unfortunately for me, I had configured the two SATA drives in a RAID-0 (striped) configuration, so when...

Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 9

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2004
Review: This S-ATA drive, for 150MB/s performance in terms of bandwidth not much faster than many UDMA-100 hard drives, which is not great considering the hype surrounding SATA, and the extra costs of SATA controllers on motherboards. Then again the prices...

Drive failed

Date of Review:  Sep 29, 2005
Review: I bought this drive as a database backup to a server. It worked fine until today. When I rebooted my server it came back up and the drive wasn't there. It's visible in Device Manager, with no warnings, but I can not mount it, format, or do anything...

Reliable & Fast

Date of Review:  Sep 17, 2004
Review: I bought this hard-drive just over a year ago. I payed an extra few pounds for a well known manufacture, and for a drive with good stats (8mb cache, 7200 rpm).
This drive has been used almost daily for over a year, with no errors or faults so...

Maxtor 120GB failure, X2

Date of Review:  Nov 22, 2004
Review: Am now looking at a second near-dead MAxtor 120GB HDD. The first died after less than 3 months in the system. The second is a "refurbished to Maxtor specifications" drive that Maxtor sent as a replacement. It too is beginning to show the signs of...

Maxtor 6y120m0 high failure rate

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2005
Review: We have a computer lab with 16 Dells, each containing a Maxtor 6y120m0 drive. So far, in less than one year, we have lost 4 of these drives to total disk failure. Dell should seek other vendors.
