Hitachi Rack rail kit

Advantages: Very versatile mid range server
Disadvantages: support web site can be awkward to navigate

Advantages: Quite, low power consumption, high capacity
Disadvantages: Expensive

...I have been using a Hitachi TravelStar for a long time now, I have had not problems with it and I have given it a good run for the price I paid for it. I originally started out with the 80gb model of this hard disk. I had absolutely no problems with it. (I now have the 100gb model as the laptop it was in was broken in a car accident). I had the 80gb model for a year and never gave me any trouble.
