why would it have to be a toshiba? i looked up the specs on the toshiba hard drive *made for autos*

the drive i got had better specs for vibration and shock control

also i can be sitting still and have the system reboot.

Apparently you have not done much reading around the forum...

I had ordered a Fujitsu with better specs than the toshiba, and it rebooted a few times. Got the Toshiba 60GB auto drive and have not had a problem. So I guess it pays to have toshiba.

Reading is fundamental 8)

I thought about getting a better spec'd drive too, but after all the thread searching and reading, I saw that any drive other than the Toshiba just didn't work. That's why this site is here, to learn from users before us that have tried and tested all the numerous possibilities...
