The highest grade going to biggest clients like IBM and the lowest going to small companies. So, if I buy a disk from Jasmin say for $600 do I really get a disk of lower quality than if I buy a GCC (or someone elses) product for twice as much? Is the grade of the disk marked anywhere on the disk? Should a buyer be concerned about it or there is practically no difference? I hope qualified people can explain the difference.
