I havn't had time to sit down and organize this, but if you
buy laptop drives, you want to get either a Hitache prefix 'E'
or Seagate suffix 'B' drive, they're the only ones I have been
able to find that are rated for 24/7.

The Hitachi prefix 'E', like the E7K100 are sold through regular
channels here in Denmark.

The Seagate suffix 'B' I have only heard about from a powerpoint
slide sent to me from a person in Seagates PR department who
appearantly can't figure out how to answer my follow up questions.
It was stated specifically that these drives would not be sold
through the regular Seagate channels, so where the heck you can
find them is anyones guess.
