Giuseppe_P@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/19/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:Slower Speeds Pros:ReliableGreen EnergyGood Price Comment: WD Caviar Green have been dependable drives for me. Slower speeds than 7200rpm drives but save energy. Good capacity and price ratio.
blowe46@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/18/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:5400 RPM slownot meant for OS installation Pros:*large capacityuses little powergood for long term storage Comment:* This represents the large capacity hard drives that are coming out now. This 1.5TB will most likely replace the 1TB mainstream out now. This was pretty slow when an OS was installed. I would advise to only use this as storage for media files.
Henry_W@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/15/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:none so far Pros:Easy to use. Reliable. Comment: Have 4 of these drives. No problems and easy to setup. Also helps when I bought the latest one for 59.00.
Bradan_A@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/13/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:-Possible future reliability issues Pros:-Western Digital reliability-Good cost/gB-Good size-Low power-Decent speeds Comment: It's a 3.5" hard drive. There's not much to say other than that it's priced accordingly, goes on sale frequently, has decent reads/writes, has power saving features, and is from the brand which is generally most reliable.There has been some talk about the green series drives being less reliable than the black series because of the power-saving variable-rpm motor... nothing is confirmed. keep this in mind.
vautoub@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/12/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:packaging is weak Pros:It is fast and quiet. Almost can't hear it.Lots of memory there. Comment: I installed this on my first build. I had no problems installing it. I am pleased with the performance so far. It was not boxed or anything. I guess for the price it is a good deal. No complaints!
Doug_the_Slug@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/10/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:Slow, but you have to expect that with a product like this Pros:Cheap and large capacity Comment: Got a pair of these for a buddy who is moving from DVD backups of 100s of gigs of data (shudder) to hard drive based backups.Paired with a dock, he has one drive internally for simple storage of all data he wants to backup, and then a 2nd one to use with the dock to make backups and send offsite.These drives take forever to format.The drive contains a method to use jumpers to format properly in XP. The drive did not come supplied with a jumper, but fortunately I had a container full of them on hand.
Mitsuda@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/10/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:- None Pros:- quiet- fast- affordable- high capacity Comment: Fantastic drives, I bought two of them and they both perform very well. I am extremely happy with these and would highly recommend them. At approximately $0.04/GB, these drives are so affordable, especially when on sale at $59.98.
GregL@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/09/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:- None Pros:- Cool & quiet Comment: I have a pair of these operating in RAID 0 and have no complaints. They run cool, quiet, and vibration-free.
Ryan_K@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/09/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:None Pros:SATA, 64MB Cache Comment: Very good drive for extra storage or use as a secondary drive in a system. The price on sale was the same as the 1TB Green, so the value was awesome
Guangyu_L@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/08/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:None Pros:Running coolQuiet Comment: I got it at $59.99 for my HTPC. It is very quiet, and nearly silent. I have hear people complain about WD Green HDD before. For sure, I had problems with WD Green (had 4 1T Green HDD as protable drive, and all dead in a year). But those are the old model ones. These are EARS which is suppose to be better than before and support smaller unit allocation. I hope it won't fail me. Only time can tell.
Boneskull@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/07/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:None Pros:Plug and play, price per GB Comment: This drive was paired up with a Seagate 1.5TB drive purchased earlier and a mirrored set was created for Windows 7 O/S. No performance loss with installation. Quiet and reliable. For $60 it was a good deal.
Mark_B@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/06/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:great for storage wouldn't use as an OS drive. Pros:Got it on sale with free shipping. Comment: Put this in as a storage drive in my WHSv1, just had to make sure i set the jumpers, and it works great. Lots of room for storage, wish I had for got 2.
Jim_A@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/04/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:None so far if head parking issue has been resolved - I'll believe that when I see it. Pros:Price. I got mine for $59.00.Setup went as smoothly under Linux as the 2T WD's.parted --align opt /dev/sdX - where X is the letter of the drive being set up.Again, I used GParted to make sure that it set up partitions and file systems properly. It offered all the right stuff with setup my MB instead of cylinder - starting with 1M free space.Apparently with 2-6-34 kernel 4k drives will be set up properly - with 2-6-33 - the above steps are required. Comment: The first of my 1.5T drives is WDC WD15EARS-00J2GB0 which seems to be the new model.the huge copies for backup have shown reasonable speed for these slower drives, so all seems to be working. I'll just have to see in the long run - but I'm extremely happy with setup and copying results of these 4k drives..
Hendi@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/04/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:nothing so far Pros:Price, speed and quiet Comment: Installed this as my second drive to my SSD (60gb). Games load fast from this drive as well. Read/write speeds seem great so far.Got this on a price match.
MaxFast@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/01/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:I was scared of the advanced sectors at first but after reading more realized it was pretty simple to take care of Pros:Not slower than my older 1TB WD Green1.5TB for $60 on a deal Comment: Running under windows 7 as additional storage. No issues so far. I moved all files from my WD green 1TB for more space. The 1TB is now blank for when I need it.
Robb_S@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/25/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:I received an older 00Z5B1 model.Erroneous statement by WD that this drive is ready for use under linux. Pros:$59.99 with free delivery. Very quiet.Has 4K sectors ("Advanced Format"), which will probably become standard on all hard drives soon.No issues with "Intellipark" like the EADS series Comment: I suppose I shouldn't blame WD for the inability of linux to handle the Advanced Format sectors.Unless you align the file system structure to the physical sectors, performance suffers. The solution is simple, but should be done.See http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-4kb-sector-disks/index.html?ca=dgr-lnxw074KB-Disksdth-LX

Ed_S@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/05/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:Slow as a single drive, but would be excellent to setup in Raid. Pros:Good price to storeage ratio Comment: good, cheap, and reliable drive to backup all your media. When transfering about 100GB of files the drives initial transfer speed starts around 95MB/S and slowly drops to a steady rate of around 40MB/S
Christian_L@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/02/10	Western Digital WD15EARS Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA 64MB Cache 3.5IN Hard Drive OEM Cons:none for cost Pros:Large Fast Affordable Comment: Bought this on sale for backing up all my media, transfers times were to spec, price was good, drive is quiet, five stars for me.
