The number of hard drive manufacturers has decreased dramatically in the past few years. Many of the old reliable drive makers are gone now. Many experts feel that Western Digital makes some of the best drives still available, just be sure to avoid their products that feature digital protection or are advertised as green. Those are not of the same quality and have unique problems. All hard drives have issues, the larger capacity the drive, the more prone it will be to failure. Be sure to have a backup plan, especially for some as irreplaceable as personal photos.
