    Guess you got unlucky, are they the same brand?

    Physically the only hard drives that have a better MTBF rate are enterprise drives and they of course will cost you. How long have you had this HD and is your warranty out yet?

    This is a VERY long guide if you read all of it but it may help you reduce failures.
