Могу сравнить с черной серий, преимущества зеленой серии:
тише работает,меньше греется, разница 2-3 градуса с черной.

- + Холодный, тихий (на фоне других дисков).
- - Цену бы на несколько сотен поменьше и получилась бы идеальная модель. Не слишком быстрый, но это практически не ощущается.

This review comes very late but it still doesn't change the fact that this hard drive is utterly useless. This item was purchased to serve as a slave in April 2010. It performed well doing the few tasks that I required of it, then one horrible day in July 2010 it went BYE BYE. That was a horrible experience for me and I have not purchased a WD device since. I am in need of a new HD now as the Master seems to failing. I am wondering now if I should try WD now. After all 2 yrs is a long time right????

Works great, extremely fast, and very quiet. Great product. Highly recommend. I got this drive to replace an old loud hard drive and its SO much quieter but I wasnt expecting it to be so much faster also.

As of 20 Jan 2010, Amazon is using inadequate packaging (see photo) for this hard drive "Western Digital 1.5 TB Caviar Green SATA Intellipower 32 MB Cache Bulk/OEM Desktop Hard Drive WD15EADS". Instead of using some sort of all encompassing, form adapting beads i.e. popcorn or robust energy absorbing pre form, Amazon is using a single layer (see photo) cardboard cutout forms that were torn (see photo) on arrival. Hence, did not keep the "high density" fragile item secure in transit.With just two cardboard hoops (see photo), the hard drive had a ~? inch gap (see photo) about the drive perimeter. Also, the top and bottom of the hard drive box was without any substantive padding and had a ? gap top to bottom. The insertion tab portion of the cut out hoop form was also dislodged from it holding slots (see photo).Since this drive was not secure during transit and potentially exposed to high G loads, those in excess of the manufacturers recommend limits along with handing and shipping procedures, I chose not to take a chance with this item and returned the product to Amazon. Reason being, high G loads in transit can and do lead to rapid premature failure and why the hard drive is conspicuously labeled "Fragile Handle With Care" by the manufacture.Amazon use to be able to properly ship items of this nature. Since then, Amazon has unwisely changed their method of packing for one that does not meet all of the same objects obtains by the previous method. If the previous method, packaging popcorn, drew too many complaints or was too expensive, then at minimum the replacement solution should have been as good if not better than the last.In short, whatever change Amazon elects to make with their packaging method should always be driven as a "value added alteration" as perceived by the customer. Customers returning items to Amazon, due to insufficient packaging, is not "value added".Amazon, as a form of respect to it's customer, has the responsibility to mitigate and reduce risk of damage to a product and for that product to remain secure during transit to it's final destination. What occurred in this incident was a display of dysfunctional processes, lack of over sight, and an example of what not do.Minus 1.00 for Amazon approving this method of packaging.Minus 1.00 for not securing a dense fragile item for shipping.Minus 1.00 for changing a shipping method that worked for one that does not.Minus 1.00 for needlessly wasting my time and having to return an item.

I purchased this product for use with a Moxi DVR Moxi 2-Tuner 500GB HD Digital Recorder. Because it shuts down after 45 minutes and will not wake up without using the power button on the Rosewill RX-358-S SLV enclosure, it is not a prefered option for a DVR. It can be used by scheduling garbage recordings to fill in the gaps in the recording schedule, thus preventing it from shutting down, but this is a hassle. I am using mine to record marathons, and swapping in a more suitable drive for other timer recordings.The Samsung 1.5TB EcoGreen Samsung 1.5 TB SATA 5400 RPM Hard Drive is this other drive. So far, the EcoGreen has gone various idle intervals up to 12 hours without shutting down, or at least it wakes up on its own after shutting down. I can't be sure which.Considering that the 500GB WD My DVR Expander Western Digital My DVR Expander 500 GB eSATA Desktop External Hard Drive WDG1S5000VN is currently $121.95 (I bought mine for $69.99) and the WD 1TB My DVR Expander Western Digital My DVR Expander 1 TB eSATA Desktop External Hard Drive WDG1S10000VN (Black) is unavailable indefinitely, the combination of the Rosewill enclosure at $49.99 and either the 1.5TB Caviar Green (acceptable with caveats) or 1.5TB EcoGreen (better option), even at their common prices of $109.99, for a total cost for enclosure plus drive of $159.98, are good choices, at least for the Moxi. Note the enclosure can be reused when archive drive is full, and shutting down after 45 minutes idle should not be an issue once drive is full and only being used for storing/viewing.Format speeds: WD Caviar Green 350 minutes, Samsung EcoGreen 298 minutesFormated capacity: Both 1,500,291,039,232 bytes with Windows XP Pro, but Western Digital has 8MB of unformatted space.Samsung was cooler to the touch after formatting.Western Digital is quieter, especially when fast forwarding through a recording being played while a recording is in progress.The Western Digital is the only drive I have attached to the Moxi that triggered the message "Unsupported Drive", but it worked better than either the 2TB Toshiba PH3200U-1EXB or the 1TB Hitachi Deskstar (7200 RPM/155 minutes format time), each of which shut down after just 30 minutes.

Install went relatively smooth using the Acronis software I downloaded from the Western Digital site. At first I had some trouble with the cable I purchased from CiTi (through Amazon) [[ASIN:B0001Y8UI4 StarTech.com 18IN SATA HARD DRIVE CABLE ( SATA18RA1 )]. The system did not recognize the drive. To see if the cable was the problem I used the DVD/CD cable temporarily. That worked. Once the drive was recognized I could install the Acronis software (you need at least one WD drive in your system for it to install). I added the new drive to the system and then cloned my old drive. The cloning took about an hour (225 GB). After cloning the Acronis software lets you shut down the system and change cabling, etc. That was handy because I could reuse the cable from my old drive on my new drive and make the new drive primary. Of course I put the DVD SATA cable back. Until I get a new cable my old drive is offline.Note - the cable's right angle connector was backwards for the position of the drive in the bay. I could not have closed the cover due to the way it had to be connected so it was useless anyway. I've been up and running for just an hour now - I gave 4 stars because I kind of suspected that getting the right SATA cable was a crap shoot and was sorry to discover that this was indeed the case.

I bought this drive in December 2009 because of the many positive reviews, and it completely failed after 6 months of minor use. The Western Digital diagnostic tool revealed that there were so many media errors that it could not continue. Chkdsk listed thousands of read failures before I gave up and sent it for RMA.The RMA instructions on the WD site listed detailed packing instructions, and it occurred to me that the problem might be how these bulk drives are handled once they arrive at Amazon's warehouse. They probably arrive from WD, properly packed and padded. Once there however, it could be anyone unpacking these drives and simply throwing each onto a shelf. Then an order comes in and someone else picks these up, throws each into an Amazon box with a few bubble pillows, something the RMA instruction specifically say would void your warranty.Imagine the thrashing as the drive goes through the conveyor belts, the journey on the various trucks, the loading and unloading, and the final thud as it lands on your door step.No wonder there are so many positive reviews, together with the numerous incidents of the drive failing after just a few months. And this seems to be same with other brands.Perhaps that's why Seagate has a 5 year warranty of their retail drive but a 3 year warranty on the same bulk drive.Amazon should learn how to pack the drives from the WD RMA instructions!

These hard drives are ideal for those needing 2 to 4 drives in their computer, but do not want the high cost or compatability issues associated with hard drives over 1 TB in size. These are ideal for the Dell Precision series using RAID 0 or 1, giving the user as much as 3TB of continous storage space or 1.5TB of "Mirrored" storage (RAID 1). Having 4 low-cost high cpacity drives also allows for both Windows XP/7 and Linux Redhat or Ubuntu to reserve an entire drive as a "Fat32" storage volume, a storage format understood by all the major O.S. platforms. With 32MB of cache and a SATA connection, these drives load files quickly and are very quiet.

I think this drive is functioning well and has to this point given great service. Problem is that its the second drive. I had to return the first one as it was not functioning correctly after being shipped in Amazons 'hassle free' packaging.That packaging consisted of simply 2 of the LARGE single chamber air filled bubble wrap packs and a OPENED standard static free plastic baggie. Totally unacceptable shipping practice for a sensitive device subject to static, as well as shock and shaking damage that would make it useless on one hand, and or sporadic in service on the other. I happened to have the latter of the two.That said, Amazon took the return, shipped me a new one next day (free) and this time the package protecting the drive while not perfect, was better. The static bag was sealed, and there was a LOT of the SMALL standard bubble wrap around the drive. This time it seems to have worked as I like the device because it works as it should and have had no issues since. Really Amazon, get someone to make things consistent in shipping. Preferably someone with a clue as how to handle electronics.These are drives intended for bulk installation by a PC manufacture concern so be aware you will need appropriate cabling and frame screws if you plan to mount it in case.Its fast, quiet, and has quick access/retrieval.Good drive, fair price, be VERY picky about the shipping. If there is ANY doubt its not functioning properly return it while you can for another. I rated it highly because it functions great, and is all I could expect in that way but sadly the return service while very good will possibly be needed, thing is it wouldn't have to be needed if they only shipped in appropriate packaging.

This drive was purchased along with the Antec MX-1 USB/e-SATA 3.5-Inch Hard Drive Enclosure for use with a DirecTV DVR. It has functioned flawlessly for over 2 years, getting a lot of daily use. The setup is quiet and reliable.

this HDD works really good, I haven't had any problem at all, I use it as a network hard drive in an old computer (Pentium 4) with Linux Mint, so I can access the HDD from any laptop in the house. and it has no compatibility issue at all, both Windowze and Linux work nice and good. I thought it was gonna be used, but it's new, it has no sign of use whatsoever, and for the price it's the best deal I've seen, I paid like $55 I think.

If you are using the regular version of XP or are using disk cloning software choose the EADS series and you'll save yourself a lot of grief! The newer EARS series has 2k sectors rather than 512 byte sectors and that will cause issues with both XP/win 2K and most disk cloning software.If you have the 64 bit vesion of XP, Windows 7 or Vista, and aren't using disk cloning software then the EARS series might be acceptable or even preferred. Otherwise, don't get taken in by the message saying there is a new version of this drive. It's not an improved version of this drive!

As usual this WD drive worked flawlessly. Have been using them for all my built systems since the 90s and only one has ever crashed and data unrecoverable. My last WD drive lasted over 7 years, and finally needed more room. Still using the old 250gb WD in an ide enclosure and it runs great. The drive installed perfectly with Windows xp with no problems whatsoever. I've read on other reviews that for some xp systems you should use the eads drives. I'm not really a computer expert, but this drive is an aads and it works fine with xp. Maybe aads is the new eads???? Anyway it works great, and is much faster than my old drive. Buy this, you can't go wrong.

Summary: unusable in a RAID array, incredibly loud and annoying on Linux.I ordered three of these drives and they're all going back as defective.They look inexpensive and folks give them good reviews; I talked to people who used them in their desktop setups. It turns out that Western Digital, at some point, changed the drives they were making so that they no longer work under a RAID setup. The drives routinely fault out of the array all because you can't turn on TLER. (Check wikipedia's article on Time-Limited Error Recovery if you want the gory details.) Also, when used on a Linux computer, they make a horrible loud clicking noise every ten seconds as the heads are parked and un-parked due to routine disk access. Nowhere on Western Digital's spec page about the drive does it say "do not use in a RAID setup" or "do not use in Linux."Hey, Western Digital: lots of desktop computers (Dells, for instance) ship with RAID 0 or RAID 1 setups these days! It's no longer an "enterprise" feature, so you might want to make sure your drives work with it!From scouring the web, it turns out that the "sub"-model number and build date are important. My three drives were WD15EADS-00P8B0, built Nov 2009, firmware 01.00A01. There are reports that older build-date drives can be made to work; true or not, mine could not. Western Digital's customer service is of zero help, blaming the problem on everything but the drive.No more Western Digital drives for me, ever. I've put WD drives in my last three builds because they're inexpensive and reliable, but no longer. Back to Seagate drives (yes, even after their ST31500341AS firmware debacle)!

I bought this drive back in early December, 2009. About a month ago (June, 2010), my computer started getting hardware failures and rebooting for seemingly no good reason. Last night, I ran checkdisk on all of my drives, and over 50,000 Bad Sector errors were shown for this drive.Since my drive is still under full warranty, I went to the WD websiteto report the issue. In order to get a replacement drive, you have to package it to their specifications and mail yours off to them OR provide them with a credit card so they can block off $100 to pay for the drive in case they say the drive isn't defective.On top of that, for a drive that is clearly defective, YOU HAVE TO PAY SHIPPING TO MAIL THEM THE DRIVE!! I understand that hardware some times fails and needs to be replaced, but I've never had to pay to ship a clearly defective item back to the manufacturer!!! I would NOT have bought this drive had I known this was their policy!

Packaged in bubble wrap again (about 1 week ago, around Feb 1st)!!! So after yet another call to customer service to explain that the packaging was improper and I wanted a replacement for my replacement because the original shipment and the replacement were both packaged improperly, customer service finally said they were pulling the Amazon seller listing for the item and correcting the problem. I decided to just return the original shipment, the replacement shipment, the replacement's replacement shipment, and yet another additional order I had for a refund as I don't think the improper packaging issue will be fixed anytime soon.The bubble wrap was popped and the drive had solid contact with the bottom of the box resulting in unforseeable shock damage. Check the manufacturers shipping recommendations how to properly ship a hard drive and you will understand the difference that packaging makes.I did take pictures of the hard drive in the packaging and did attempt to leave the packaging feedback you read above however Amazon said I had too many rateable packages in the past ## days. But my packaging was as shown above with bubble wrap.Good news, I see that Amazon doesn't have any until 2/20/2010 so it looks like Amazon is attempting to take care of the packaging problems. I thank them for listening. Great product and even better when packaged correctly.
