I doubt that you would find anyone here who would disagree with you!  But 
failure is a nuisance even when it is not a disaster.  It is worth something 
to me to lessen the chance of failure, and I have had experience myself of 
how good the WD guarantees are.  But price is sometimes fixed at the point 
that marketing think the market will bear or even like, so is not a reliable 
guide to whether you get more bang for your buck.

Thank you very much for your input.
