Manufacturers have become increasingly good at making drives (and other stuff) that will last exactly 3 years or whatever the warranty period is.
CAD result. One can predict with good acuracy the life time of an object. And this is good. Buy 3 years waranty stuff, the cheaper the better and make backups. change them as they die. anyway, what are good for thouse old drives? I have a lot of 20Mb laptop drives at hand, much less handy than a cheep flash drive... In data processing, three years is much... That said, I still use much older computers (recycled big companies ones) - I have now problems to find somebody that wants one for free... jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.org http://news.opensuse.org/2009/04/13/people-of-opensuse-jean-daniel-dodin/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
