Reminds me of death of IBM 10GB drive (that came w/ Dell Inspiron
5000k) ... just after three years of warranty period of my laptop.

Currently i have been using Fujitsu MHT2060AH 60GB hard drive for
about 8-9 months; cannot say how long it will last.  It has been
amazingly much quieter in comparison.

My usage consist mainly of writing/searching/reading files --
fetching email, (de)compression of ~2.5GB mbox, various log files.
