Following on from this thread, I would like to officially ask you for a list of hardware that has failed on you, this way I can collate a list of bad products and dodgy components. As we would all like to know which manufacturers/components to avoid 
I decided to offer a meagre prize to make sure I got enough people to respond to make the data useful. This is just a data gathering exercise.
All you have to do to enter is to either post here with the hardware that has failed on you or post a comment on my blog post.
I need you to help me some more though; As I want to get the most people to respond as possible can you please post a similar thread on other hardware forums you may frequent and ask them to visit the page;

and just leave the comment there with a real email address. I want to get at least 100 people to participate (so we can get a wide sample), on here or on my blog I don't mind, so we can get as much of a wide sample as possible. Can't be too much work for a free USB drive
Please see the blog post for the "rules". If anyone would like to contribute something else to prize fund to ensure we get the most people to respond as possible please pipe up.
And of course I'll post all the information gathered here
