My current one is starting to squeak and I'm thinking I'll replace it before it fails on me. Anyone have any recommendations?

I personally recommend MAXTOR hard drives...

Especially take a look at new models (feat. Ultra ATA 133 protocol) entitled D540X & D740X...

I'll give my input a bit late...anything BUT Western Digital. Out of about 6 I have had 4 have gone 'thumper' on me. For reliability I still have a quantum fireball 6.4 gig I got in 97 running solid without any problems ever. Seagate is pretty decent too.
