I've had 3 Seagate Barracuda's (2 x 2.1gb fast and wide, 1 x 4.3gb fast) fail this week. They are in different machines but the configuration is the same. Asus PCI/EISA dual Pentium (1 cpu installed), tower case (2 fans) with lots of space around the drives. The 4.3gb barracuda was attached to the PVR. Any ideas on why these drives could fail? 3 in a week is disturbing. We do have air conditioning for the office (8am – 6pm) and it hasn't been exceptionally hot this week. puzzled, Martin
