I purchased this drive in March of 2010 as a secondary drive on my computer. I used that secondary drive as a layer of redundancy to back up my files. I was pleased with the packaging. I was pleased with the ease of installation. And I was pleased with its performance. I should add that the drive worked perfectly for a secondary drive, however I think it would have been a bit slow if I was using it for my operating system. Anyways, it ran cool and was quiet. Six months later, the drive starts acting up. It begins disappearing from my computer, locking up, and throwing out all kinds of errors. Since it is a secondary drive, it is quite easy to diagnose simply by popping the drive out. When I do so, the computer runs perfect. So after running the Western Digital diagnostic tool, I determined that the drive was definitely failing. I called Western Digital and they sent me a new drive under warranty. All I have to do is return my old one within 30 days. So kudos to WD for having such a great warranty process, but I'm very disappointed that my drive failed within six months of use. Hopefully the replacement will work better. Based on all of this, I don't know that I would recommend this hard drive to anyone. I've had much better luck with the Samsung Spinpoint F3 drive. It has been rock solid for me. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Spinpoint-Cache-Desktop-HD103SJ/dp/B001U3S5S0/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1285868446&sr=1-1UPDATE: Feb. 2011I definitely recommend against purchasing this hard drive.As you can read above, I received the replacement hard drive in Sept 2010. I ran it for 4 months and the replacement hard drive just failed on me. I can't believe that I would get two bad hard drives right in a row unless the product quality is subpar. And judging from the reviews, I'm not the only one experiencing this hard drive failure. So I'm off to warranty this hard drive for the second time. Unfortunately, warranties only allow for a replacement of the exact same product. Honestly, I don't think Western Digital could pay me to use this particular drive again. All of the hassle that comes from hard drive failure and replacement far outweighs the energy savings from running this "green" drive.With that, I can unequivocally recommend against buying this hard drive. It has too high of a fail rate to make it useful. Look somewhere else if you are in the market for a 1TB drive.

It took buying a second one to realize why my system was performing like it had a hangover. This Green hard drive is for someone who REALLY wants to conserve energy & does not care about performance. I like Western Digital® hardware, but this version of the Caviar(tm) lineup is decent at times but mostly lazier than the fat dog at the beginning of that wonderful SuperBowl® Volkswagen® commercial! Now, it's time to do as James Brown said & "Get Up Offa That Thing!" I'm back to WD's Blue ones. (WD's Black ones are for the performance hounds.) For reference: [...]

I have purchased a number of these WD Green 1TB drives and almost all have now failed on me. I am a die hard Western Digital fan having over 25TB of Western Digital Drives in my office, but something in these green drives does not last. I will continue to buy WD, but only Blue and Black drives as I have not had issues with them. I use my drives primarily for video recording and editing so it may have something to do with this. I had one WD Green 1TB drive die in my HomeServer within a couple of months of installation. WD is great at replacing drives while they are under warranty, just make sure you backup before they die :).

THE QUICK TAKE: The WD10EARS is a new (shipping 12-2009) version of Western Digital's popular and successful WDxxEADS Caviar Green series of drives. It's a very good drive, but may need more thought than usual about whether it's the right drive for you.The Caviar Green drives offer low power consumption, low noise and moderate operating temperatures, while still maintaining performace good enough for many applications, such as networked storage. This new WDxxEARS series uses more dense 500GB platters - so a 1TB drive has just two platters, and several drives up to 2TB are available. The new models have 64MB of cache.ADVANCED FORMAT: There's another change as well. WD is using this series to transition to 4KB sectors on the hard drive; they call it WD Advanced Format technology. The long-term goal is to improve the efficiency of large hard drives, but as a transitional move they still trying to accomodate the 512B sectors that Windows XP uses. So the drive emulates that, using 512B logical sectors. However, they still claim that Advanced Format provides an improvement in burst speeds.ISSUES WITH XP: While that sounds like all good news, it turns out that many XP users need to use the WD Align software to setup the drive, which can be time consuming and create some potential issues in formatting and partitioning the drive, and in finding tools to do that.The exception is if you are using a single partition for a clean install - then there is an option to set a jumper on the drive before installing. WD has a table which summarizes installation at their "Advanced Format Hard Drive Download Utility" web page - anyone buying this drive should be sure to review that page.So less technical users may want to believe WD when they say "WD Advanced Format drives are specifically optimized for Mac and the latest Windows operating systems such as Windows Vista and Windows 7." This drive might not a good choice for some XP users - you'll be fine with the tried and true EADS series.VISTA AND WINDOWS 7: Further, cloning and partitioning tools might present issues with Windows Vista and Windows 7 as well. You can read more about the AF transition at the WD web page mentioned above in the AnandTech article, "Western Digital's Advanced Format: The 4K Sector Transition Begins." They note that as of 12-2009 there might not be any commercially available cloning and imaging tools that would work with these drives.LINUX AND MAC: The Anandtech article also states that current versions of Linux and Mac OS X are not affected by issues with Advanced Format, but discussions online suggest that Linux users seem to face some complexities on how to best partition and format to avoid mis-alignment.OTHER INFO: The WD site has a good whitepaper on Advanced Format. Tom's Hardware has a good discussion about the earlier EADS series in an article entitled "Caviar Green, WD10EADS, And 1 TB," with power and performance info; and some interesting points if you Google "Pros And Cons Of Going Green."

This is not the fastest drive out there, but It was more than enough for some cheap storage. I have bought 3 or 4 of these for clients and no one has had any issues. Great drive!

Seduced by reviews praising their blinding speed I installed a SSD as my C: drive when I built my new computer this winter. Unfortunately, it was too small for Win7-64 to operate effectively (I also think Win7 didn't like the SSD itself). Anyway, when it came to a replacement I fell back on Western Digital. I've never had a problem with any WD drive I've had: no failures - knock wood - they just run forever. This one was a deal, a plain vanilla OEM 1 terabyte SATA II, for less than $60 on Amazon. It comes with "green" technology installed, but I can't tell the difference (we're talking micro-amperage savings here). Better is the 64 MB cache - better than the 8-16 MB caches found on most drives this size. That speeds things up. I'd recommend it to any gamer. Installation was a snap: plug, plug and it was ready to go. Did a clean install of the OS, which took about half the time of the original install to the SSD, and Win 7-64 heaved a sigh of relief and began running right for the first time. That was a month ago and zero problems since. I heartily recommend Western Digital drives, both internal like this one and my D: drive, & external like the 2 1 TB "My Books" running off my USB 3 ports. Life is good.

When I purchased my one terabyte drive for my "dream machine", I planned to add it to the 500gb Western Digital drive. I wanted to use the 500gb for Windows Vista and my programs and the one terabyte for my data files. The idea was sound and the solution proved to be perfect. One thing to be aware of though is that this is OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and contains no hardware or instructions. I would not attempt to install it myself. I took it to my computer shop with a trusted computer geek and he performed the task. I've been very pleased with Western Digital drives... why would I want something that would die on me after a few months or even years. You'll save money with this OEM drive but if you are unsure about installing it, spend a few bucks more and have it professionally installed.

Aside from my main C: drive, I have two other auxiliary drives for data storage. This WD is one of them. This WD went from being sluggish in early 2011 to inaccessible currently. I cannot copy, move, or otherwise manipulate my files. The drive simply times out and sometimes displays an I/O error. Buyers beware. Don't be like me and save all your family photos and videos in one drive.In case you're wondering, I tried all troubleshooting techniques including re-seating the drive and plugging it into a different computer, and reinstalling Windows 7.

I purchased the SATA Hard Drive for installation on a new Q-see QS408 DVR Q-see QS408 Network Security DVR. The hard drive arrived quickly and I immediately set out to install it expecting to have the usual unknown last minute glitch. The drive fit the DVR case very well and after plugging in the cables I restarted the DVR. The OS408 DVR took over the installation after following a couple of on screen instructions and the Hard Drive was ready to go to work in no time. I find the SATA drive to be energy efficient and quiet. The down rating on Speed is only due to the fact it is too early to judge that at this time however, the quality of the playback pictures indicate it has sufficient speed for my purposes. As for dependability time will tell.

I bought this drive to replace the old one in my computer that was long full. It installed with ease, only a small hiccup when I was doing a clean install of XP, but I cleared that up no problem. I got all the stuff on my old drive transferred over quickly and I was ready to go.I've had the drive for nearly a year and I have no complaints about it. My computer was going slow for a while, but we narrowed that down to the RAM. It's pretty quiet, fast, and it's been a solid, dependable drive ever since it was installed.I only wish I had gone for a bigger drive because I managed to fill this one up in about 7 months. When I do upgrade to a bigger drive, I know this one will make a great back up or secondary drive.

Western Digital did it again, they made a solid HDD & the power saving option is even better than the older drives. Had no problem formatting & loading data onto it in the least, though I am also running Vista Ultimate that the drive was designed for.

i have a 10 year old hard drive i've kept loaded with xp as a back up drive, it still runs flawlessly. I bought this with hopes for a faster and still reliable drive. 1 year on a hard drive is a terrible lifetime. Done with western digital.

I've had this thing for around a year, and it's still working flawlessly. Western Digital has always been my favorite HDD company, they are reliable unlike Hitachi drives. My friends and I joke about how crappy Hitachi is here, all of us have had more than 1 of their drives fail on us. As far as HDDs go I would recommend this product, it does exactly what it says and it's reliable. The price has definitely went up since I bought this though.

I have never had a hard drive fail on me, nor know any friends or family members who've had a hard drive failure. So I was very surprised when windows came up with an error about this drive failing. I had it installed as a secondary drive for more storage space, and thankfully did not have my windows OS installed on it. I hardly used it for the 3 months I had it, only putting about 200GB worth of data onto it.It failed shortly after moving a 7gb folder onto it. How incredibly inconvenient to lose all the data I had moved to this drive. I will definitely be more careful and zealous about backing important files in the future =,\Western Digital support recommends I RMA this, but I don't think I want to risk another "green" model causing me to loose more of my time then this has already cost me. Very disappointed.

I purchased two of these drives to set them up in a RAID 1 configuration in my DNS-323 NAS. However, every time I try to run the RAID 1 option in the DNS-323 configuration utility, the drive formatting fails. I consider myself computer savvy, but I am definitely not an expert. After many hours of research I still have not been able to find a solution to set these drives up as RAID 1. Some recommended solutions much to technical for me for me to try. Other reviews I have read simply say that for various technical reasons (e.g., TLER physically disabled), this drive should not be used for a RAID setup.All that being said, I did not have any problems setting my two drives up to run as independent drives in the DNS-323.

after weeks of trying to buy a new western digital hard drive with about 500GB. I finally got this new western digital 1TB for about the same price as the 500gb. It's now in and working as expected and the delivery from amazon was a day earlier then promised.

I purchased this hard drive in October 2010. It failed in May 2011, that itself was not enough for 1 star but the fun does not end there. When I tried to create RMA in WD website I got surprising message that warranty on my drive ended few days before I bought it. I contacted them via email to explain that I just bought it few months ago and it was advertised as having 3 year warranty and this is response I got :"Thank you for contacting Western Digital. I apologize for the inconvenience but we can only accommodate for 1 year of shelf life. The manufacture date of this drive was 20-SEP-2007 and your purchase date was in 2010. Unfortunately, your drive does not qualify for warranty update."So WD basically told me the warranty starts from the manufacturing date not the purchase date. Very dissapointing attitude.. I contacted Amazon and they agreed to take it back. You may want check the warranty status on WD website if you decide to buy their product anyway. I am personally going to stay away from them in the future.

I am NOT taking my computer apart to return this supposed "1TB" hard drive. HOWEVER, it is 350gigs maximum. This is just another time I get screwed from someone on Amazon. I come here thinking I'll find some great deal but here I am again, cornered again. I'll just buy this type of stuff local for now on. At least if I get screwed in town I'll know exactly who and where to go to deal with it.

In addition to the very well put together review regarding the sector issue there is another potential pitfall that would affect any SATA drive, not just Western Digital. My copy of Windows XP Professional is SP1. This version of XP does not have any SATA drivers included in the installation process on the CD. I have an ASUS motherboard, the SATA drivers are next to impossible to find (I never would have found them without a far amount of googling; there is a file on the CD called makedisk.exe that will put the SATA drivers on a 3.5" disk). Therein lies the next issue, most systems don't have a 3.5" drive anymore. There are ways around this by slipstreaming the SP2 upgrade into the CD, this is a somewhat complicated process that I would not recommend to someone without a good deal of experience. If you want to install a SATA drive in an older operating system like I did, be prepared to spend a lot of time getting it to work.Bottom line, once I was able to get the drive operational it works great; low noise, quick response, works just like I hoped. The installation issues weren't tied to the drive but more to the older operating system. If you have a newer operating system it should go a lot smoother than mine.
