Well, it tells you how good that particular Fujitsu is.


I had a whole batch of seagate disks die on me at one company.
That doesn't tell me how good Seagate drives are.

I have 600Gb of filesystem entirely on seagate drives here, some fail
some run happily. No disks are perfect, but it's rash to imply that
Fujitsu are a bad disk manufacturor because one disk died!

Personally fujitsu and IBM are at the top of my list above seagate on
who to order from.
