We have used quite a few of these drives where I work now (in 40GB & 80GB sizes) .. I tend to find they don't like heat and so they get put in the "internal use only " bin .. means that we don't supply them to customers anymore. They don't seem to be very reliable and suffer from bad sectors / SMART failures within a few years of use.
