've heared that there is a difference in grades of Seagate disks.
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.
