Default Firewire... The absolute best??

Hi,

We've been using Firewire drives for sometime now. Usually the Lacie oxford 7200rpm 80/120 etc... We recently tried some OWC IBM drives, and had three out of four go down because of faulty IBM drives. I'm weary of going back to the Lacie, as they have no fan, and I'm not real confident about their auto on/off switches. But what else is there??? I'm not real thrilled about paying $500 plus for a digi drive. I've heard of a PNCengineering drive that had an 8mb cache instead of the standard 2mb, but I was wondering if anyone else has tried these, or has any other suggestions.

Thanks

Alex
