Greetings,

Lately (just from postings here) it seems as if hard drives have been dropping
like flies (or is this paranoia?).  

Since I'm currently looking to replace the INTERNAL hard drive in my SE with a
higher capacity unit, I find this somewhat disconcerting.  So, the question: 
What to buy, if anything?  I'm looking for something in the 60MB range, quiet,
fast, and cheap (mutually exclusive, right?).  I was thinking about the 45MB
from Ehman ($449), but that's a little small. Is there any company that's
currently recommended?  How about GCC?

Appreciate any help,
Rich

p.s.  e-mail if you like, I'll summarize.
