IBM Travelstar 40GNX
I'm thinking about buying a new harddrive for my iBook and the IBM Travelstar 40GNX seems nice.
Anyone tried it? Got any opinions?

I had read similar reports about the first fluid bearing models but thought it had been ironed out by the time I bought this one... :-(

on the good side, ibm service was great about replacing the drive. but they will NOT offer any recovery services of data.

And boy is it ever; you have to disassemble the entire ibook in order to get to it.
