This drive I bought is a Seagate 1.5TB drive. I've been told by some people that Seagate's 1.5 drives are "wonky" or otherwise unreliable. I don't know if that's true, but I'm going to hope that everything goes well with it. I'm only going ot be using it for backup of stuff that's ultimately "nonessential" anyway. Like storing the rips of my music CDs. If the drive fails, I can still re-rip'em - it'd just be a pain in the butt to do so.
I'll probably be putting the linux isos on it as well since those can be easily reobtained in a pinch.
