Western Digital SE16 500GB SATA2 7200RPM 16MB Cache 8.9MS NCQ Hard Drive
Cons:-None
Pros:-Quality Western Digital Caviar drive-Excellent for high-performance games, data storage and backup purposes Comment:
I now have two of these. The first I bought last November when I built my gaming machine. It's set up as my D drive for games, media, and important data and it is blazing fast.I bought the second one from NCIX in June and stuck it inside the I-Rocks IR-9410ES SATA-II Enclosure, also from NCIX. It's a safe and reliable way to have a backup of all your data. It also turned out cheaper than buying an external drive. Those things are usually not as reliable as quality internal drives. |

I purchased two of these drives at the special price a few weeks ago and have been using both as my main hard drives. I run my computer 24/7 and I have not noticed any issues with these. You can't go wrong with these drives at these prices. |

Cons:None so far
Pros:Cost per GB Comment:
I bought this drive at NCIX sale price of $69.99 and am using it inside Acom Data Samba Hard Drive Enclosure. The resulting external drive is quite hot, and actually I had to add an external fan, but this is the issue with the enclosure rather than this drive.So far I am happy with the drive itself, especially its per GB cost :-) |

I purchased two units and have them set up in RAID-1 as a backup for my network. The price is what finally convinced me to buy these. At $65.99 each, with a 3 year warranty, you can't go wrong! |
