Have you ever needed service from Quantum? I just had a 1G Quantum SCSI
die and
they totally suck when it comes to support. I found out that the 3 year
warranty
that they advertise doesn't apply to my drive because it was OEM, they
won't swap
me a drive so I would have to wait 3 weeks(!) to get a refurbished drive
which
they would charge $130 for. I'm not ever spending another penny on
Quantum.
Next time I think I'll buy a Seagate.
