Excellent [Posted on 2008-04-07]
I bought this drive for an HP EX470 Home server and has been working flawlessly since I bought it. Snappy response and quiet overall performance.
one Terabyte [Posted on 2008-06-07]
This thing works great, very quiet, lots of space, and conseridably affordible. It works great for me, I needed 2 of them for all of the videos and movies I edit.
A few of these + a Drobo = Paradise! [Posted on 2008-06-24]
So, I purchased a couple of these and threw them into a Drobo and they have been humming along ever since. These drives run cool and quiet!
Potential Firmware Issue with 3ware raid card. [Posted on 2008-06-27]
I bought four of these to go with a 3ware 9650 raid card, I noticed that the drive with the older firmware 1.0A (the newer version is 1.0B) regularly times-out. I believe the firmware can be updated by contacting western digital based on some online research, however, it appears to be an involved process and involve getting a dos based utility from WD support. When you are running eight hard-drives in a single array the energy savings will be significant. Moreover, if used in an array, the reduced performance of the individual disks as compared to other 1 TB drives is not noticeable.
Solid performer, and its green. [Posted on 2008-07-18]
I bought three of these drives to fill out an HP EX470 home server. They have proven to be reliable, cool running, and quiet performers in their 24/7 environment. And on top of it all, they use less power. Excellent drives
