Magnetic Data Technologies didn't last very long. They were selling reflashed & refurb'd western digital drives.
Their hard drives had a bad reputation and were usually a few bucks less than similar Maxtor drives which had a better track record.

I don't know when the company took a dump. I'm surprised some people remember those hdd's. blink.gif


Interestingly, their website still exists. tongue.gif
