I've had excellent track record with Fujitsu -- especially SCSI line.

Always found drive reliability to be closely coupled to the thermal management (or lack of it) of the case. Always bought/buy cases that allow fan placement on the drive cage so as to actively move air across the drives.

Very modern SATA-II run quite cool, but, in the past, drives with active air flow just ran, and ran, and ran for me.
