Pro:Low power consumption. High capacity. Quiet. Thanks for the SATA-I jumper. My motherboard (ABIT VT7) recognizes this HD right away with 1.5Gb/s speed. I should be able to use this drive in the future when I upgrade my MB.Con:I took and attached a picture of the packaging. Looks like Amazon standardize the package by putting the HD with only TWO bubble wraps in a small box. I ordered some other items so they just put this small box with other items in a big box with ONE bubble wrap.Overall, I'm not satisfied with the package. Amazon should put more bubble wraps or even foam around the HD to create more buffers. I can feel the HD is shaking around inside the small box because it lacks of bubble wrapsOther:* I bought this HD in Amazon because I saw Vinogh posted the picture and the packaging used a great foam around the HD. But, it's no longer like that now. Amazon has same poor packaging but higher price than another famous on-line retailer.* It should be a 5-star product but I reduce one because of the packaging.* The HD was made in Thailand on 04/10/2009. The HD was running through the diagnostic software in both Windows and DOS environments. No problem.

..but sometimes I do hear the clicking plates. So not as "super-silent" as reviewed here on amazon. I do not feel like commenting on packaging since amazon probably changed it already, they recieved a lot of bad critic on that. On the other side, the delivery was very fast: within only two days it arrived (I live in Mexico so I recommend this purchase.

Everything works great. One thing I didn't realized when I bought it (not at the fault of the seller but just my general ineptitude) is that you'll need a SATA cable to hook up the hard drive- it's not included. One quick drive to Best Buy and you're good to go- but if I had known earlier then I would have ordered one off Amazon.That being said, the hard drive works great, is huge, quite, and fast for what I'm using it for. I use it to dump all my pictures, videos, and mp3s on. Works great.

Bought two of these for use in a Drobo unit, then bought another two. One more for the Drobo and a backup in case one of these went south on me. First two came individually boxed in their electrostically protected bags with foam rubber above and below for protection. The next two came in the original box with which they get shipped from the manufacturer - 20 at a time - in their protective bag. So I have a huge box with some type of styrofoam with 20 slots in it and two hard drives. i.e. you won't know what kind of packing you'll get until you get them. These are Bulk/OEM so do not expect fancy packing or cables. I knew this before buying them so was not disappointed.So far the drives are working flawlessly (about a month). I hear the blacks are faster, but this is a part of my backup scheme (Time Machine on a mac) so I don't need blistering speed. I also run my iTunes library off of this backup including downloading and listening to a minimum of 2 podcasts a day and up to 4, including video podcasts, depending on the day.Drive is quiet. You can hear them when when they are running but it is a muffled sound from within the drobo.EDIT: It is now Feb 2011 and none of the drives have given me any problems. I've recently added the 4th one to my Drobo.EDIT: It is now Jan 2013 with no failures to date. I even dropped my drobo from waist high onto a hard wood floor forcing the drives to half pop out. Put it all back together and still working well. I even bought an extra drive to replace one I figured would go bad. It is still in the box.

I purchased two of these drives in January of 2009, along with a D-Link DNS-323. Installation of drives into the NAS was extremely easy and I have found that using this from all of our household computers has been a snap. In fact, I'm writing this because I've decide to purchase another set and thought I'd share my experience in the process.

Ever since I had bought this item I have no issues to report. Even though I have an IDE interface, all I had to do was buy a USB to IDE/SATA Hard Drive Enclosure and I was ready to go. The best comment I can think of is I'd almost forgotten that I had owned it. It works that smoothly.

This is currently the best size for price break-point and is my go-to drive for most storage for the dollar.I've purchased a full dozen of these over the past year. I have not deployed them in a RAID (either software or hardware RAID) environment, so I can not speak to their performance in that respect. Using them both as extra internal and external storage for various systems, they have proven themselves robust and reliable as well as quite and have not increased the heat output above my previously smaller (750gb) drives.At the time of this review, I would advise this drive for someone looking for most storage for the buck. At least, until the 2tb WD Green drives drop in price (currently selling for about 250% the price of this 1tb drive).

I have a bunch of these for video streaming, backups, and everyday use. I have never a failure or issue, they are quality drives.The only issue to be aware of is that Amazon sends them poorly packaged, often the OEM box in an Amazon box with insufficient (or no) packing material. The OEM box only uses cardboard cutouts for support, so the Amazon box should be cushioned better.

I'm using this Hard Drive with a Syba Combo IDE/SATA PCI Card SY-VIA-150 and rather elderly HP pavilion a742x Desktop with XP SP3. It works quite well and was an easy install. The HP pavilion a742x has a 160 GB HD, so being able to add a 1 TB HD was great.The drive was well packed suspended in a plastic "cradle" inside a carton. UPS didn't crush the carton. I'm happy!

As our media libraries grow, we need bigger drives. It's just that simple. I decided to pick up one of the WD Green drives, and formatted it without an issue. It's not the fastest of drives (I'm using it in an external USB enclosure) but it does what I need it to do: store a lot of data without (hopefully) failing.The only thing that sucks and dings a star from this is the warranty. Most drives are coming with 5 year warranties, and this only had a 3 year warranty. Granted, if the drive goes south, I'll be more upset about the data loss than the drive. WD, in my experience, has been awesome about returning faulty drives and getting replacement ones to me in a timely manner.

I have a 7 year old desk top (Intel P875 I think) that had 2 Seagate Barracude 120Gig ESata drives . Decided to replace these 2 with the 1Terabyte Drive from WD. My PC is so much more quieter now. No problems installing the drive. I did a re-install of Windows XP (I keep the OS on a separate IDE drive, and all my data is on this new 1Terabyte drive). I've had the drive now for about 3 months and it's going great. Can't beat the price.

I bought this drive and installed it the day after Mother's Day 2009 (May 10). It died on May 18, 2009. That's eight days. I had just finished moving all of my data from my old failing drive to this one the day before its boot record or MFT decided to call it a career. Thankfully, I use the Mozy service to back up my important stuff, so I was only out a few photos and an album I had just downloaded.Customer Service from WD was useless. I was told to get an RMA number, pay for shipping to AND from their facility, and wait up to 15 business days for the replacement. Or, I could utilize one of their certified data recovery services, which I'd have to pay for. They apparently do not recognize a difference between day 8 of ownership or day 800.Thank God I was still within the Amazon return window. They're taking it back and giving me a full refund. I prefer WD over Seagate, but I would shy away from any of these "green" drives. I read some issues about them when they first came out, thought I'd wait until the firmware was upgraded and then purchase. I guess it didn't make a difference.

Bought this drive for my media server i have setup in a old PM G4. Ran thru a sonnet SATA card this drive is noticeably faster than the 300GB ATA100 drive i was using. Took a little over a hour and a half to transfer all 300GB, average write speed was about 100MB a second. I've always bough WD hard drives and none of them have ever been close to their claimed capacity. I will buy Seagate next, heard they are closer.Can't beat the price tho. 900 some GB is a lot of data.

At $95, this 1TB drive is the "Sweet Spot" for hard drives right now. The new 2TB version, at over THREE times the price, is not worth it (yet).I have seven of these in use right now. Five in a Windows Home Server, and two in desktops. All of them have worked flawlessly, and my ancient 3Ware 9500S-8 controller card in the server worked fine with them.I used to buy all my OEM drives from NewEgg, but NewEgg still insists on improperly packaging OEM drives for shipment. Over the last 4 years, I've bought 10 or so Seagate Barracuda's from NewEgg, and 5 of them have failed. I attribute this to improper packaging from the Vendor. The key to long life of an OEM drive is PROPER PACKAGING for shipment!The first one I got from Amazon worried me. It was packed even worse than NewEgg. But I (and I suspect others) complained about it and now Amazon is doing a good job of the packaging. The last 5 have come in well protected. Thanks for listening Amazon!I have three older drives left to replace in my Windows Home Server (old 300GB Seagate Barracuda's). I'm waiting for the next price drop, then I'm going to replace the last 3. Then I'll have 8TB in my WHS :)

There is no diagnostic software to download for Macintosh. If you have problems at the hardware level, you will have to find a way to test it with Windows, but then what about your Mac file structures. It's too early for me to say whether there are reliability issues, but since there are numerous complaints, the first thing I did was start testing it. I had to use a third party utility to run tests.When used heavily, you can hear the drive and if you have active cooling, it will kick in. When it is idle, it all quiets down.Also, Amazon is back to its old ways of sending the drive with almost no padding. By "almost no" I mean there is a thin layer of bubble wrap and an anti-static bag. Other than that, it bounces around inside the shipping box.

In 15 years of building pc's this is the quickest failed drive I've ever purchased.It has barely lasted a month of use. I was simply using it as a data dump and not the primary system (OS) disk and am returning for a refund.5 stars to Amazon for taking it back and 0 stars to WD for such a product.

The drive worked well for about a month. The build in SMART feature caused windows to display a message stating the drive failed. I used the Western Digital website to easily get a replacement drive. The drive would be perfect if it hadn't failed.

I bought this to replace a failing Seagate 750gb 7200.11 drive in my Netgear Readynas Duo. I originally only bought the Seagate drive because it was a match for the drive that originally came installed with the ReadyNas. What a mistake, the Seagate is noisy, hot, and after 6 months is reporting 10 new bad sectors a day. After reading some forums and seeing the price of this new(er) Green model from WD I decided to give it a try. Now this drive is not on Netgear's compatible list but it does work fine. It's SO much quieter than the Seagate and it runs 10 degrees cooler and uses half the power according to reviews I've seen online. This is a big deal for a NAS. Performance is a wash since the network is really the bottleneck for any NAS box. As luck would have it, immediately after replacing the failing Seagate drive with this WD Green, the other Seagate drive in my ReadyNas started reporting failures. I removed it and ran SeaTools on it and it too failed. I now have two Seagate drives in route to their RMA dept. Never again will I purchase a Seagate drive after my experience with the 7200.11's. If you have a NAS drive, a DVR, or even a mid-range PC than this drive is perfect. It's no speed demon, but even in many benchmarks is a faster than many other 7200 rpm drives on the market.

Dead on Arrival! The shipping box and lack of packing material was just not up to the job. I was a little suspicious when I heard the slight rattle as I installed it in my Power Mac G5. Then came the ominous "tic..tic...tic", silence, then "tic...tic" of a drive that is dead. After numerous attempts to revive it and use any form of utility to read it I finally gave up and carefully placed it in the bin! My father once told me 'if you pay peanuts you get monkeys!"

The Western Digital Caviar Green SATA 1 Tb internal hard drive was a 'snap' (literally) to install in my 2-yr old Dell XPS 410. However, this OEM package did not include installation instructions, so I had to wade through Western Digital's large website to find installation assistance. Once I had those instructions in hand, however, it took just minutes to quadruple my computer's hard drive space.
