Seagate 7200.12 reliability?

[cpthk]

I am one of those people who had 7200.11 and break down due to firmware problem. But even though I upgraded the firmware, the lag problem is coming back again. I am planning on getting another one just for backup data.

To 7200.12 users, are they still normal right now? How long have you been using it? Which size model do you have?

Thanks.

I have 7200.12 for about 4 months and so far no problem...

I've had a pair of 7200.12 500GB's in RAID 0 for at least 6 months now with zero problems.
