I was on travel the last 4 days and Murphy struck when I was least expecting it. I was online no longer than a hour at my travel destination when I had a hard-drive go south. What a nightmare, needless to say I am still in recover mode and thanks to a very good computer insurance policy I am online with a new laptop while the not so old one is being repaired.
This is the second time I have gotten burned on a Seagate Laptop Hard-Drive. Here is the deal HP before i buy another one of your computers you need to stop putting Seagate hard drives in the machines. Also the replacement laptop which is a HP Pavilion dv8000 running on a AMD chip is much quieter and has significant longer battery life then the ZD8220 I had the HD go bad in. I don’t care for the new keyboard as much but seems to run a lot cooler.
