I need your advice for buying a HDD.
Let me explain: I have 2 250GB hard disks, one dedicated to my Linux environment, the other Windows. I move my sensitive information from one to another to minimize the risk of loss.
But since a few months my windows HDD has more spams. In addition, XP is often having a problem. For example, today I checked the hard disk for errors and it found around 20 bad sectors. Eventually I fear for my data.
I wonder because it has been 2 years and I had no bad things happened (although used 7/8 hrs/day on an average). Is this the end of its life?
So to replace it, I want a reliable disc (no need of quantity since I will not store movies or download things).
