If I asked anyone who builds computers for a living and bought quality components and not the cheapest thing they could find they would tell me "Maxtors are fucking junk".
Why would they say that? Because they are fucking junk. In the 13 years I have had hard drives in computers, the only HDs I have ever had die on me are maxtors. The same can be said for a number of people I know.
Just because someone builds computers for a living doesn't mean they have a clue about what they are doing.
As for the best brand, generally the better the warranty (Including a no bullshit RMA policy) the better the drive.
Of course things like luck and the quality of your power come in the play as well. Which is why you should always back up your shit.
