According to Aberdeen, Inc., a large reseller in CA that I use, the Western Digital 5400 rpm drive so highly rated in this article, the WD400AB, is no longer available.

Based on this article, I ordered a pair of WD400AB's from their site. When I received them in the mail, they were WD400EB's- WD's 'value' drive, which I doubt has the same high specifications that the AB had. Oh well, just thought you folks would want to know.

Oh yeah- thanks for the good article.
