AscendTech harddrives???

[maw]

anyone ever heard of this manufacturer or had a chance to use one of their drives? If so, what's your opinion of them?

They seem to have drives that match the WD Raptor in specs, but are ridiculously cheaper. http://www.ascendtech.us/itemdesc.asp?ic=HDIUSDSATA150RP&eq=&Tp=

That's my guess too. I wouldn't mind a refurb IF it came with a decent warranty. I couldn't find any mention of a warranty, so that leaves me a bit suspect.
