That's funny - my 250 and a buddy's 250 also died last year (toasted 
power regulator on one, comatose hard disk on the other).
OTOH Eric has a big stack of LaCie disks (7 or 8, different models) and 
(so far, knock on wood) never had a problem.

Besides G-Tech. and WD (just got a MyBook, like it so-so) - anything 
else in the range of 200-400GB with FW400 someone can recommend?

    Thanks, Michael.
