Just thought I'd let others know about my experience with Maxtor drives. I purchased them prior to getting the NV but my experience has been nothing but joyful.
I have 2 6H500F0 (firmware HA431C00) for almost 7 months now without a problem. Smart+ shows no errors of any kinds (besides some Hardware ECC errors, ok) and they have been up for over 800 hours and have over 360 start/stop counts to them as I put the NV to sleep every night.
I just added a 7H500F0 (firmware HA431DD0 - I should have bought these originally as they have the 5 year warranty) about a week ago and so far no issues at all.
