Cons:none
Pros:Large capacity Comment:
I've had good results with WD over the years, not so much with seagate. These are a very nice high-capacity addition to my system. No problems so far, and I don't anticipate any. |

Cons:out of 4, I had problem with one that was dropped of my RAID-5 because of bad cluster (12 pending sectors)
Pros:Silent, the WD advanced replacement RMA is really nice ! Comment:
I've always been a fan of seagates drives. Those are my first WD drive for something like 5 or 6 years.I don'T see much difference between both company, exept that the WD advance replacement really impressed me. I'm not sure if Seagate offer this ( maybe, but all me seagate drive work well so I don't need it )Anyway, I'm satisfied of the drive, but I find a little unnaceptable that a brand new harddrive show trouble: they should test it better.I would give a 2 stars rating, but the Western Digital support really worth mentionning it, so I'm adding an extra star. |

Cons:Perhaps high defect rate.
Pros:Size, price point. Comment:
First drive I received I had to RMA. Second drive works great so far. I am using it with a DNS-323, for which it is compatible with 1.06 firmware. Good combination. I will buy a second drive when I have the funds. |
I bought three of these a month ago when they were on sale. I got two directly from the sale and the third via the combo deal with the Antec HotSwap storage bay.I've put all three in a server in raid5 and haven't had any trouble with it, it has been running smoothly from then on without a hitch.The lower RPM is potentially a weakness however since they're serving for filestorage I have no need for the higher speed.
