Runs like a champ.

Strengths: Quietor than my 6-year-old 20GB Maxtor (previous compouter) ever was and that was pretty quiet too. Fast, even more so in RAID0

Weakness: None

I was surprised to find these drives offered to me as a choice when I configured my PC as Maxtor markest them toward enterprise users. But I suppose my PC Maker (ABS) realized how durable they would be for home users as well. They were right. Allthough, just like my previous Maxtor drive on my previous computer, they all usually run 24x7. No problems, whatsoever. I highly recommend them....

Not the drive for me.

Strengths: There cheap you can find them on sale for as low as $80.00

Weakness: They run very hot. They have a very high failure rate

At this point I cant help but not recomend this drive. from my experace they seem to have a failure rate of about 50% after one year of use. I only buy Maxtor 250's. I treat this little guys with the best of care, they have the best of power supplys and UPS backup power, lots of filtered cool air. There even mounted firmly in a low vribration housing. The case there in is never moved when the...

Maxtor MaXLine Plus II 250 GB Internal Hard Drive -...

Strengths: Storage size

Weakness: Unacceptable failure rate

After a month, I've had one failure within the first 48 hours, returned that one, and the second one failed within a few weeks as well. Just requested my RMA for the second one. At least the failures give off a nice fireworks show. In both cases, the third largest chip on the underside of the drive caught fire and melted. Interesting sound when that happens -- I was only in the room for the...

Maxtor MaXLine Plus II 250 GB Internal Hard Drive -...

Strengths: satisfactory return of defective drives

Weakness: High failure rate,

I bought 30 of these drives to use in Promise 15000 RAID external chassis. 10 of them failed from the beginning and 4 died within the first month. They've caused me so much grief that I've decided to go with WD instead. Maxtor 200GB gave me no problems, but the 250GB were pain.

Titanic

Strengths: Very silent, high Mb for your buck ratio

Weakness: Titanic... need I say more?

It was large, cheap and very silent. I loved it until it crashed. Thank God I've backed up all my data on another (non-Maxtor) harddrive. Could probably get the drive replaced under varanty but I won't - Maxtor is no longer welcome in my computers!

Maxtor MaXLine Plus II 250GB

Strengths: Cheap

Weakness: But not reliable

Bought 2 Lacie external firewire drives. Both were 500gb units which had Maxline Plus 2's (2x250gb) at the heart. One unit failed after 6 months and the other after 9 months.Would stay clear from Maxtor units from now on.The company needs to address the reliability issues as posts from other buyers suggest this line has a very high failure rate.

Take it from me, these are unreliable

Strengths: Performance stats

Weakness: They all die eventually.

I run the IT department at an internet company. I have worked with about a dozen of these drives and almost all of them have died. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. I don't even use Maxtor anymore. WD has been great for us.

Maxtor MaXLine Plus II 250 GB Internal Hard Drive -...

Strengths: Fast drive

Weakness: Drive failed within 4 months. Drive was originally purchased in a Sony P4 Desktop. PC was brand new. Drive failed at 120 days. Very poor service

This drive may be a fast drive and provide good transfer rates, but the reliability is terrible. The drive was originally purchased in my Sony P4 desktop, installed by the factory. The drive was used in my home office environment, usually about 12 hours per week. The drive completely failed at day 120. Very poor quality. I have owned several Maxtor drives but this is the worst quality Maxtor...

Maxtor MaXLine Plus II 250 GB Internal Hard Drive -...

I bought these drives based on price since they were going into a NAS to replace 4 120GB drives. They perform very well and they actually generate a little less noise then the IBM 120's I pulled out.
