Malware found on new hard drives

Here’s an interesting story that I found in my inbox.  The Taipei Times is reporting that around 1,800 new 300GB and 500GB external hard drives manufactured by Maxtor shipped with malware on them.  What makes this story even more interesting is that Taiwanese authorities suspected that Chinese authorities were involved.

This is a VERY important story if you install your own harddrives or even if you have someone else do it. Please read the rest of the story by clicking here
