MacUser and MacWorld have tons of ads from hard disk manufacturers,
and often the battles for the lowest price are fought out there.
I have heard rumours about lubrication problems with Seagate hard
drives, but I cannot verify any of them.  Around here, Quantum and
CDC drives are very well respected.

I would note that Ehman Engineering and Microtech offer five-year
warranties on their fixed drives and two years on their 
removables, which is more than anyone else.
