I'm looking to buy a new HD - the one I'm looking at is a 250GB Maxtor Diamondmax 7200RPM, 16MB cache, for £54.

I currently have an 80GB Maxtor Diamondmax and never had any problems with it, other than it eventually being too small.

Should I be looking towards other brands? I don't want to go above around £50 and it must be at least 200GB.
