yes mine caused serious slowdown, then, during a session of BF2 the game froze and the HDD made some serious clicking noises and the pc shut down, then restarted and said no OS found.

I put the MAXTOR HDD into another pc and couldn;t get the files back. I lost a lot of stuff and MESH sent me another one and it has started to show telltale signs of going wrong too. I wonder whether the drivers are incompatible or i use it too much, but i have a SEAGATE BARRACUDA running alongside the latest maxtor just in case something goes wrong. Now the maxtor is used simply for storage and no heavy use operations.

I just seem to have bad luck with Maxtor. I have never tried western digital though...
