I needed a harddrive to use in an automated back-up system that would turn itself on, activate, then back-up six computers as scheduled, then shut down the six computer and itself. This product has speed, durability, and performance to accomplish this. Although I have had this product for only a few months, it has functioned as required. Only an RE version might have been a better choice.

I installed the drive in a Mac Pro desk top computer. Easy to install and format. It has been working without problems for about a month. It is being used for Time Machine backup.

Amazon listens!! I was concerned after reading reviews that the drive was package poorly. Not This One. It came in a heavy cardboard box with foam shipping support at each end of the drive. These little black supports were form fitted to the ends of the drive and supported it in such a way that the drive never contacted the box, kind of suspended and cushioned in the air. A+ for shipping.Thanks Amazon.Unit came from Lexington, KY

Two drives purchased. I partitioned one and copied 2-3 GB of extremely sensitive data to it. After the copy operation, computer crashed and would not reboot with the drive mounted. Not with Windows XP SP3 (would not boot), not with Western Digital's diagnostic boot CD (black screen), not with Ubuntu Livedisk (did not see the drive), not with a fully installed Ubuntu OS (same). Ok, the drive is bad. It happens. But WD should at least be willing to take responsibility. I spoke to three Sorrybots in Bangalore. They wanted to charge my credit card for $250 pending receipt of the bad drive while I tried to find a way to get my data erased from the drive. I paid less than $250 for two of these things. Absurd.Now, I understand it's not their fault in Bangalore and there's nothing they can do except say "sorry" over and over again. Each asked if I wanted to be transferred higher up the line. Each time I said yes, the next sorrybot came taking a turn saying "sorry". Finally I got California. After 20 min of WDC's lovely hold music I got someone who could make it right. Should not have taken that much time or effort on my part.Oh yeah, the 2nd drive which was treated exactly the same, works fine. But is is noisy. Noisier than any HD I've ever had. Like a jackhammer. If you're looking for something to store media files on, don't even think about this one unless you can tolerate a lot of background noise. I don't know, but I'm told that Seagate's 1TB is much quieter.Two stars for product quality. Zero stars for service.

I bought this drive for direct replacement of a WD250 drive. The WD500Black has different connections, as it lacks the MOLEX power connector. Hence, no simple exchange. The WD web site has Installation Instructions page which showsthe MOLEX connector. They call it "legacy".It took several calls to WD to clarify the issue. Just short of RMA-ing it for exchange (it looks defective).Had to buy a SATA to SATA cable and an adapter for the power connection.This information should be available for potential buyers and confused owners.

I bought this to add to my new HP 6267 desktop.Reading the reviews here, I found out I needed to order an eSata data cable, which I did. Thanks to the folks who mentioned that.When I went to install it, however, the HP only had power connectors for the old, 4 pin Molex drive power ports. Since an eSata to 4 pin molex adapter is not a regularly stocked item at Radio Shack or Best Buy, I had to order it on-line, meaning a $2 part, $10 shipping and another weeks wait to install the drive into my PC.Bottom line - check your power supply to make sure you can connect it to an eSata drive.

I purchased this drive from Amazon and installed it in my iMac. Everything went well until I went to register the drive with Western Digital. I registered the drive online at WD's website. After finishing the registration process, I noticed that WD only gave me a 3 year warranty. The warranty for Black Caviar drives is 5 years (both retail and OEM). I contacted WD support and they told me that since the drive was OEM, they could only guarantee it for 3 years! After escalating the issue (10+ e-mails and 5 phone calls to WD support) did they finally adjust it to 5 years. It took an act of god and congress but WD finally relented. When you register the drive, make sure you get the 5 year warranty.

8/1/12 edit: wow, >$175 for a $100 hdd... Boo Amazon! I noticed prices of drives climbing, but nearly double past prices is dumb. Shop around until you can get below a hundred bucks per Gb for internal drives...especially for old-school SATA2 drives! SATA3 is the new hotness, so that's why I said above that today's price on this drive is beyond 'tarded...Original review: The WD Caviar Black is a large 1TB drive that compares quite superiorly to other drives according to SandraLite. It even came in closely behind my 300GB VelociRaptor, which seems to be the top desktop drive out through spring 2009. I searched the egg, but found that Amazon had the best prices around. My HDD addition has not disappointed to date with storing and using movie backups, music and programs. I wanted to go larger at first, but other brands at 1.5TB and above were rumored to spontaneously freeze for minutes at a time during movie and music playback...that is not the case for any 1TB Caviar to my knowledge, and it certainly is not the case for my drive either.The only oddity that I have noticed for this drive is at its intial spinup when booting the PC: the HDD's initialization is marked by several very high-pitched whines that are almost bell-like in nature. But, with WD's warranty to fall back on in the event of trouble, I'm not as worried about my purchase as I could be. I just hope that I never have to use the warranty!Overall: no real complaints~it's a great drive with superior performace at the best price+shipping around!

Received the drive in perfect condition and it was double-boxed and the holders in the 1st box held the drive securly in place. I looked at the date on the drive which read Oct. 2009, so it looks like Western Digital or possibly Amazon is now packing these drives up very tight, so they are not simply dropped inside one box like others have claimed in the past. Great job Amazon!I bought this drive because it seems like the best reviewed Sata drive on the market at present and supposedly the best 7200 RPM drive out. Check out Toms Hardware for a full review of the drive and a comparison to other Sata Drives. They really really like this drive and rate it towards the top for speed and overall performance. I plan on buying another soon as $95 for a 1 TB drive of this calibur with no tax and no shipping charges just can't be beat anywhere.

Easy to install, high performance, and the well know reputability from Western Digital. Be ware though, if you try to check SMART test status of the drive using any third party utility you might receive some error codes, may be because of lacking of support of this new model on old SMART checking software! You can check this drive's health status only by using Western Digital's own (Data Lifeguard Diagnostic) software.

This is the third 1TB black I have bought from WD and they run quiet smooth and fast. The first one was bought in October and so far so good. Shipping was great. The second however I bought an OEM and the box looked like it got kicked! It was also wrapped pretty badly, with just a few of those bubble wrap things in the box. Most of the bubbles were popped so I have been wary to use the drive for very long. The last one I got a few days ago and it was packed very solid.

I bought this drive for extra storage. I've installed many drives with no problems so it never occurred to me to worry about the quality of Western Digital's tech support. The drive works, but only under the right conditions. After trying everything I could think of, including flashing the motherboard and controller BIOS, installing the latest drivers etc, I contacted WD tech support. After a month or so of going back and forth with them, two things became clear: I know more about computers than they do (turns out, so does my dog) and I now have the world's highest storage-capacity paperweight. Fortunately, HD drives are usually very easy to install and rarely cause problems. If you're one of the few that does have a problem, you'd better hope you don't have to get your support from WD. I think that if they wanted to, they could forward the really difficult problems to their design and engineering people. But rather than getting serious about solving the problem, after a few scripted-checklist attempts, their goal becomes simply to get rid of you.

I have two 640Mb Western Digital internal hard drives and now this 1Tb internal drive. Western Digital are legendary drive manufacturers and despite a few hiccups here and there, they are quite consistent in driving hard at dependable and affordable technology that packs a punch when it comes to performance.This is the "black" edition, which is recommend for power users such as gamers or people who need a little more speed for video etc.It's terribly simple to set these drives up in Windows Vista 64Bit Home Premium:1. Install the drive in a spare hard drive bay and connect a SATA cable and power cable (not supplied) to your motherboard and PSU.2. Boot, optionally verifying the drive is connected in your BIOS before loading the OS.3. Run Disk Management in Vista and initialize the drive (right click over the drive icon if initialization is required).4. Create partitions if desired, name them and Format.DONE!!

After purchasing my first 1TB Caviar Black a few months ago for my new computer build I just had to buy another. This is a very smooth and quiet running drive. Compared to my older (a couple years) 250GB WD drives, the 1TB Caviar Black trumps them all. This probably has mostly to do with drive platter density but having 32MB of cache and dual processors helps as well. It's quiet. It's fast. It's reliable. Just be sure to defragment at good intervals to maintain tip top shape.This is the best 1TB drive out there, I highly recommend it.Be aware that this is an OEM drive meaning you will have to supply your own screws (if your case requires screws for mounting) and you'll have to supply your own SATA cable.

I bought two of these to increase the amount of storage space within my desktop. Amazon provided easy packaging so no worries there (as always). Install of the drives went smoothly and after formatting them, I started to do some large file transfer tests. The speeds were fantastic and a huge upgrade from my year old 250 GB drive these two replaced.I have always used Western Digital and if they keep the quality at this level I don't see myself jumping ship at any point :).Highly recommend this drive to anyone needing huge storage space that allows for fast transfer speeds.

After a lot of research, I bought this HD to plug into the internal bottom dock of my Mac G-5 dual 2.0. Seemed like a good choice considering price and features. Installation was easy. Operates as expected. Seems to be fast. You can hear it working sometimes, but just barely. Time will tell about longevity. I'm happy so far.

I bought this hard drive at a good price. I needed something new to handle all my music production files. When I had read the reviews about this product, I was like I guess I should try if everybody giving good reviews about how fast it is. I had it for a month and I'm loving it so far. Thanks!

About a year ago I bought this drive to replace a broken SimpleTech external hard drive (inside was a Hitachi something or other that broke within a year, I lost nearly 500GB of data). I am extremely impressed. I wear my hard drives pretty hard, I am constantly formatting, and partitioning it (I like to mess with Operating Systems, so I kinda end up breaking them, and having to re-install) and it goes through MANY MANY reads/writes every day.I have never experienced any access lag, and the read/write speeds for this are much faster than on my Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 250GB drive (I've had that drive for almost 5 years and it is still running great)I haven't had any corrupted sectors, or any problems of that ilk with this drive. Western Digital has a long reputation of building quality drives, and they definitely deliver on that here.

After reading all the great reviews of this hard drive. I've decided to buy it from somewhere else due to the negative reviews of the packaging. I'm planning on buying 8 of these drives and after reading someone else's review about buying 8 drives from Amazon, (each drive in an under-padded box, and all 8 boxes in an equally under-padded large box) I will not buy hard drives from Amazon.Update 12-11-2010:I decided to give Amazon a shot with my hard drive business so I bought a few drives from them. With Amazon Prime, the free shipping and fast delivery made the prices tough to beat. The drives came their own boxes loosely packed in a larger box that was minimally padded. Each drive was in its own box and held in place within by two foam armatures that immobilized the drive and provided shock mounting for the drive. The protection looked more than adequate. From this experience, I will buy more drives from Amazon.

I am just about to request a return label for my third drive in less than two months. The first began to get very noisy with heavy vibration after about 30 days. The second drive was extremely loud and upon heavy seek/write would have a metalic grinding sound. The third drive has the same issue. I can hear this drive over my fan and TV!I think I am done with WD for now. I have ordered a 7200.12 Seagate 1TB as my primary boot drive, so hopefully that will work fine once received. As long as it has good startup speeds and is quiet, I'll be happy - I am sick of opening my computer and cloning hard drives!As for Amazon's packaging of hard drives - it is horrible. A drive with a small sheet of bubble wrap in a box much larger than the drive is NOT safe packaging. I absolutely love Amazon and spend thousands here, but they really need a packaging lesson on fragile items such as a HD.Thought the 2TB would be good but no - LOUD! How can they say 32 bels when the Seagate XT is about the same. The XT is silent compared to this. This drive sounds like a 5 year old WD Blue!

Ok, I fix computers. For many years I almost exclusively find the best value in a Western Digital hard drive. This particular drive is being used as an internal backup storage device in a desktop computer. It has a 3 year warranty and it. I suspect that configuration will satisfy all my needs as the data contained on the OEM drive AND this backup drive is worth multiples of the cost of this purchase. I feel a certain bit of security knowing I have never had a call from any of my customers with complaints about a Western Digital hard drive failing. I have not lost any hard drives or data when using a WD Hard Drive for personal use either.

Order placed on february 10, 2010. Order came from Lexington KY US. Faulty Packaging allowing had drive to hit bottom of box, no bubble rap, no protective padding, dead upon arrival. Published photos on customer images. I know this is an OEM drive so it doesn't have a retail box of its own but the amazon frustration-free packaging does not protect the hard drive from any impact.

I have an 8 core Mac Pro. I do Audio Recording exclusively and little else. This Mac is the sole Recording machine in my studio. This is the smoothest running hard drive I've ever used! No audible Pops, Clicks and no "Disk running too slow" alert messages when running a project with "20 plus" tracks with multi plugins on every track in real time! As powerful as this Mac is, the stock drive was still very puny by comparable performance. Pro Audio is a very big deal and I never hear anybody talk about what works best for Pro Audio. It's always Photo Shop or some PC gamer and Window issues. I hope this helps!!
