I've been building systems for a few years and I remember when I first started, I was either going to go with Seagate or Western Digital hard drives. Someone once told me to go with Western Digital and you'll never look back! Well, that is certainly the case. I have 4 Western Digital Hard Drives and they are amazing. They are great quality, performance, and reliability that you need in a gaming system or as a simple home computer. I've never had any problems with any of the hard drives and I definitely make sure they are running cool. My hard drives range from 2 500GB SATA 2's, this one, and a 300GB Velociraptor. I never had any problems with them, and they work instantly. The drives are a piece of cake to install. Presently I have this product and the Velociraptor in my HAF 932 case. They are kept extremely cool. With the hard drive vents on the side, any warm air, exits through there. The casing the drives come in are great; no vibrations, no noise. I love the bubble wrap they come in :)I've used Seagate, Western Digital, Hitatchi and a few others. In my honest opinion, I love Western Digital. I've never had any problems, issues, or crashes with WD. Highly recommened!

This drive was purchased to replace a 74GB Raptor. The replacement was made as a part of my switch from XP to WIN 7.To start, I noticed no reduction in the speed of my system by replacing the older 10K RPM Raptor with the newer 7.2K RPM Caviar. I attribute this to SATA2 and the higher data density on the new drive. I was very pleasantly surprised to find how quiet the new drive is. I guess I never noticed how loud the Raptor was until it was gone.Amazon's price was the best I could find, if only by pennies.And, in case anyone else is considering it, WIN 7 is what Vista should have been. I was able to use the upgrade ([...] bucks - thanks, again Amazon) on the new 640GB Caviar to make a nice clean install. How? Install onto the new drive, but skip the part where you input the serial number. Do not activate (I don't think you can, anyway). After installation, REINSTALL from within WIN 7 itself and put the serial number in, this time. Then activate as usual. This avoids any registry editing, etc. YMMV, or course.If you use a new hard drive when you install WIN 7, leave your previous OS on the old drive. Then, you can always swap drives and easily get back to your old system, should you need to.

I've used these drives before, and they work very well (fast, reliable, etc.)I just ordered 2 from Amazon. They arrived with virtually no padding other than some flimsy plastic bumpers, and both drives were dead on arrival. Returned the Amazon ones and ordered from a different company. The new ones that were properly protected during shipping work great.

NEW PACKAGING & AMAZON SHIPPING SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!DO NOT PURCHASE FROM HERE!!!Ordered this drive because of the new "Frustration Free" packaging guarantee. Well AMAZON FAILED miserably there! Take my advice and DO NOT FALL VICTIM to this blatant lie. My hard drive was packaged in a box by itself with nothing! I repeat nothing to support the drive. NO air bubble packs, NO styrofoam, NO paper, NOTHING WHATSOEVER.Drive was placed into cardboard cutouts, which ripped during transit. the drive then fell out of the cutout holding and arrived loose banging around inside the box!AMAZON NEEDS TO WAKE UP!!!!! HARD DRIVES ARE VERY DELICATE!! Don't give me a guarantee that its going to be easy to open! give me a guarantee it is going to arrive wrapped in SHOCK ABSORBING FOAM as well as working and all together in one piece!

WD over the past year has crippled these drives making them unsuitable for a RAID installation. Specifically, they disabled "time-limited error recovery". For awhile one could run the WDTLER utility and turn this feature back on but now the feature has been completely disabled. Using these drives in RAID1 results in burning, churning, clicking, clacking, data corruption, and data loss.Their purpose in doing this is to get you spend $60.00 more for their RE drives.Maybe you don't want/need RAID now but by buying Western Digital you have eliminated the option to do so.For those unfamiliar with RAID, you can run two drives in tandem that mirror each other. If one fails, you pop in another drive and the array is rebuilt. With all you music, documents, software, and photos ready to be lost in an instant, RAID gives you the peace-of-mind that there is always a spare copy on hand.

I was somehow unsure on buying these HD after the comments on packing but at least for my 640GB WD HD i can assure u that i comes safe, it came inside a box with a support on both ends that keep the HD "in the air", as i buy other stuff the HD box came inside a bigger one with air packs, by the other reviews i think amazon correct the packing issue, so at least i can tell u to feel confident that u will get ur HD safe...

I received a hard drive in a large box. The hard drive was not wrapped with ANY protective material. The drive was put on one side of the box, which was dented, and the empty space was filled with the air pockets which did nothing to protect the drive during shipping. I don't know if it will work or not but I don't want to find out. I am going to return it in the same package if I can and let Amazon deal with it. This is an ongoing problem with Amazon apparently.

I needed a high performance backup drive for additional storage. I do video editing of large video files and needed more storage to replace an existing backup drive. The Western Digital HD fit the bill. Amazon offers this great performing drive for a low price. I've used it for about 30 days without any installation or operational problems. It works as advertised.Like other reviewers have commented, OEM means cables, rails, screws, and install software are not included. Being a replacement HD meant no problems other than formatting, which Windows does for you. Check the BIOS for set up and you're good to go after formatting the HD. But if you need these installation hardware items, order an HD install kit from Amazon or the mfr. It may be cheaper to order the WD HD retail kit which has these items included. If you have any install problems, go to WD's website for help on installation issues including free drivers, if needed. You may need to go to your computer mfr's website for latest updates on BIOS. And don't forget if you have older versions of Windows xp or Vista, get their service pack updates as well.One last item, Amazon received lots of complaints on their shipping problems with these OEM HDs for the last several months from past reviews. I requested their FREE shipping option and wasn't disappointed. WD sends their HDs in a box that has thick foam padding around the HD. The HD is shipped in WD's standard electrostatic bag. Amazon ships the HD inside their box with the usual air filled plastic filler as an insulator. If I notice any external box damage or compressed insulators, then possible shock and damage to the HD may exist. If you notice damage, let Amazon know! In my case, no damage was noticed, so I proceeded with the installation without any problems.I'm happy with the WD HD product performance and Amazon!

I own a MAC Pro, so running cool and quiet is of paramount importance to me. I hesitated about getting a 7200rpm black caviar as opposed to a 5600rpm green drive because of potential whining noise problem, but I need a 7200 rpm drive for the speed (I work on Final Cut Pro a lot). I'm glad I bought the Black Caviar, it runs fast, cool and quiet. The MAC fan never kicks in even though my system is loaded with 4 internal drives and tons of memory and cards.

This drive installed quickly into my new Quad processor computer. However, it could not be formatted. Finally, upon partitioning it allowed a 1 terabyte section to be formatted for use while the other half of the drive remained unuseable. Western Digital Tech Support was useless and the employee suggested the unit be returned. I was impressed with the company's quick response which resulted in overnight shipping of a new drive without cost to me. Unfortunately, the same problem persisted with this drive. And subsequent support personnel were equally inept at diagnosing and solving this problem. My disatisfaction must have shown because I was finally connected with an advanced tech staff member who suggested updating the BIOS of my new NVIDIA 790 SLI motherboard. Problem was solved and Hard Drive is working well.Why couldn't WD have included some instructions with the drive?Why weren't the lower level tech staff better trained?If you get this drive ...update the BIOS and save some aggravation.

We've bought a half-dozen of these Western Digital Black 640 GB drives in the past 18 mos. No problem whatever with any of them, even though some run 24/7. They are relatively quiet and fast and need relatively little air circulation to remain cool, and they are ultra-reliable and carry a five-year warranty. This review applies only to the Black (not the Green or Blue) version of the drive.

Purchased the WD 750GB Caviar Black SATA hard drive. Seems to be a good value for the money. I have about 3 times the storage with this drive as my old one. It's a little faster than my old drive which was also a 7200 rpm drive. I had hoped for even faster speeds since it had a 32mb cache but even the little gain in speed I did get was ok. After all it's a much bigger drive than what I had.As far as my purchase, everything went fine. I received a confirmation email and a day or two later received an email that it was shipped. It seemed to have sufficient packing to prevent damage. Of course this was a bare bones drive so it didn't come with any cables.Price was good.Shipping was good.Good value for the money.I can't complain! I'd definitely do it again.

After reading several poor reviews on the packaging I was hesitant to purchase a Hard Drive from Amazon. But for the price I was willing to take a risk and return the hard drive if needed. However, my product was shipped exceptionally well. Opening the exterior box I found an inner box protected with air bubble. The internal box had two soft plastic feet on each end suspending the hard drive that was wrapped in anti-static packaging. Apparently Amazon has fixed the poor shipping issue with Hard Drives.

I'm scared to even try this thing out...the packaging was horrible for something as sensitive as a HDD. It was packed with only a loose fitting cardboard cutout type of packing, which still allowed it shift a lot in every direction. It wasn't even sealed...WTF? Hopefully this thing works...I'm only wrighting this now as to how poor the packaging is so as to let other know before they order what to expect. I know that WD make very reliable drive and I will rate this review based on that but, Amazon needs to put a little more care in making sure that there products are received in a manner which will satisfy it's customers.

I purchased 3pcs. Caviar Black 750GB drives and SATA cables several weeks ago to expand storage on an HP ML110 server. Everything installed first time no problem. I can't provide any quantitative measure of drive performance. I'm satisfied with the extra storage capacity.Before purchasing, I read many Amazon reviews about sloppy packaging. I purposely ordered 3 drives with cables in the hope that, if shipped together, the multiple items would require packing with extra care. 1 box with 3 drives arrived. 2 of the drives were boxed inside with a rigid custom molded insert which seems fine. One drive was bubble wrapped loosely inside its own box. The 3 boxes were padded with air bags inside a larger box. I don't know why the one drive was packed differently as three well packaged drives would easily fit inside the larger box. Anyway I feel Amazon could do a better job of packaging these mechanically sensitive items.

I ordered two of these drives for my relatively new i7 computer in hopes that I could raise my windows experience score above 5.9. I had been using two non-raid configured 640 GB Caviar blue drives and thought the black versions connected in RAID 1 might help speed things up a bit. However, the windows score for the drives which was the limiting thing for my system did not change. It was still 5.9. The drives are working just fine and are only a little noisier than the blue versions.The packaging was sufficient since they both work, but wasn't as good as the packaging on the blue drives. The blue versions came in nice foam rubber filled boxes within the shipping box. These were protected by bubble wrap.

I bought 2 of these for my Mac Pro, which came with 2 x 1TB drives at $299 each. These drives cost 1/3 at Amazon. I was pleasantly surprised to find they are IDENTICAL to the 1TB drives that came with my Mac Pro, which i had in a RAID-1 configuration. Installation was a cinch. Turn off Mac Pro, take cover off the tower, pull out the drive guides in bays 3 and 4, screw in the drive guides to the WD 1TB drives, push in the 2 drives into bays 3 and 4, put the cover back on the tower, restart the mac. The finder saw the drives, and asked if I want to open the drive app or my RAID card application. I opened the RAID card app, started up a new raid set, set drives 3 and 4 to a RAID 1 config, and off it went. A few minutes later, I had a second RAID-! drive on my desktop. This was so easy, to get up on my Mac Pro, its unbelievable. If you have a Mac Pro, buy these drives as is. your MAC pro has all of the hardware to install them. All you need is a phillips head screwdriver. Totally painless. If no RAID card, even easier. install as above, and the finder will give you the disk drive app, which you can use to put the disks on your desktop for use. Amazing price, totally easy setup.

My packaging: Plastic end caps in Mylar. Don't remember any bubble wrap. It arrived undamaged and unscathed.Result: Nothing is so easy to add an extra HDD into a Mac Pro chassis. Open, slide, close. It's done.Benefits: Adding an extra 1TB for under $100 in addition to my 500MB brings great relief and is so much more reliable than an external drive. Suitable for those working with images or video editing.Drawbacks: On occasion, when the drive is not accessed in a while there will be a extremely high pitched "beep" or tone. Hard to pin down the first time because it resembles a smoke detector low battery alert. The cure, other than turning the Mac off is to use finder to access any file on the drive.

This drive looked great on paper with all the specs that are listed in the product description. It looked fast, cheap and reliable. So far it has lived up to all expectations. The drive was a snap to install on my Mac and was immediately recognized by the system. All I had to do was format it for the Apple and I was off to the races. The drive seems very responses. In copying the data that I wanted on the drive to it, the drive performed very well. I have not yet had the opportunity to really put it through its paces by using it for video editing but I am very happy with it. My only gripe and it has been said many times in these reviews is that the packaging it comes in is awful. Luckily mine was not DOA but I could easily see why so many reviewers had horror stories. Amazon must think that it is cheaper to replace the broken drives than to fix the packaging. Too bad its such a hassles for the buyers that have the bad luck to get a dead drive. For the price and performance you can't beat this HD. It performs exactly as advertised and if it matches your needs then I would highly recommend it.

Amazon's packing is still insufficient for a hard drive. Hard drive was wrapped in one layer of bubble rap facing down on the bottom of the box with nothing beneath it. Although on top there were 3 air packets. But this only prevents the hard drive from sliding around, not from any impact. With the way shipping is handled you don't know what could have happened to your hard drive. This could cause hard drive failure and im not sure about whether to trust it or not. Honestly I would not buy a hard drive from amazon again. But the hard drive itself is nice, especially with 32mb of cache.UPDATE>>>>>>>5 months in a this hard drive is dead as a rock. Does not respond whatsoever. I blame this on the poor packaging. Be wary of purchasing this from amazon.

The new Caviar Black 1 Terabyte drive is quite incredible. So much storage at a very reasonable price. Installation into my HP a1630n was straight forward, and the SATA connection was very nice. No jumpers to configure or other issues. I will say that formatting took quite a while, but I did opt for a full format, not the quick one. Considering the 1 terabyte size, several hours to format was not unexpected.I don't notice much heat difference, although I also installed a new video card at the same time, so I would think it is more from that. The drive is also very quiet, I am not sure why others mentioned it could be noisy. I am not hearing any noise issues.I immediately backed all my systems on the network to this drive and feel much better, knowing I have an image for all 3 other systems. So far I am very satisfied with the WD drive and hope it lives up to the descriptive features of automatic error correction and internal diagnostics. I feel with the features, it was worth the extra money over a WD Green or Blue series.

I needed the drive mostly to store big amounts of video. It's a good performer. Easy to install. However a couple days after I got it, the Western Digital Green 1.5TB price was lowered under $100, that's what I was looking for in first place.I have purchased books from Amazon that come well packaged and bubble wrapped inside the box. This one came inside a box with the drive loose covered with plastic. This is in fact a very dangerous packaging that may lower the life of the drive.

I've been using a Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB drive on my Mac Pro for well over half a year now.It's a really great Hard Drive so far. The best internal Hard Drive that I've personally experienced.The drive is big, very fast, cool running and has just a bit of seek noise."Seek Noise" is the clattering that can be heard when a drive is accessing data.Fortunately, this WD1001FALS does have an "Acoustic Management" feature than can be adjusted by use of a Hitachi utility called "Feature Tool".Turning the Acoustic mode "ON" does make the drive quite a bit quieter at the expense of seek time.For use on a Mac Pro you do not need any additional cables or screws so the OEM or Bulk drive is OK.Just open the case, pull out a Drive "Carrier", attach the drive with the screws already on the Carrier and slide it in. Start the system and use Disk Manager to set up the drive.I even managed to copy my original drive directly to it with a minimum of fuss. (and then removed the original) for a lot more space and a little bit faster boot time.As a whole the system seems just a bit snappier when opening apps, rendering or saving big files.Someday, I'm going to get three more of these for this 4-drive system.Have Fun,Keri

I have been evaluating 1TB hard drives to replace a failed RAID array. I had just bought a WD Green 1TB drive, but it was DOA. I returned it to Amazon without problems. Then I started reading a lot of reviews online.The decision came down to a Samsung Spinpoint F1 or a WD Caviar Black 1TB. [[[***Note to those of you looking for hard drives for RAIDs, Drobo, or constant, heavy use: WD Blue label drives and Green label drives are not specifically certified for RAID-type use. The WD Black label isn't, either; but note that it has a 5-year warranty instead of the usual 3-year standard drive warranty. There was conflicting warranty information about the Samsung drive (though it is RAID-certified); some sites said three years, others five.***]]]The WD drive so far: quiet, fast. I've had a few WD drives fail, but overall, WD still is my favorite for reliability and quality, as well as problem-free operation. And this drive features a 5-year warranty. . .seems worth your consideration for that rare feature alone!A caveat to Amazon: I'm not impressed with the packaging on this drive or the DOA drive I received several weeks ago. Two bubble bags are not sufficient to immobilize the product in the shipping box. Granted, the drive heads should be parked after manufacture to prevent platter damage, but I don't think the product getting slammed around more than it needs to inside the box does it any good. Please pack hard drives better, Amazon!

Good drive; plenty of space to install programs and store files; runs pretty fast with 32MB cache; from what I've heard/read WD caviar black is a reliable brand, it's running well on my PC so far (not too much noise coming from it), I guess time will tell whether it has longevity. Window 7 rated 5.9/7.9.Amazon delivered the product fairly fast and in good condition. It was bubble wrapped and placed in a holder; very secure. I bought it as a bare drive, so no screws or anything provided in the package for you.For 10GB per dollar, this is definitely a good drive!

I purchased 3 of these to start. My primary use is on a Windows 7 64 Bit intel i7 950 6GB RAM on an EVGA X58 SLI LE, I use one WD6401AALS as the primary drive OS and APPS and the other two in a RAID 0 array for my D: (Video Disk) I have had awsome results with these drives. I've compared them to other drives on the internet and from other reviews these drives are great and even better in a raid configuration. I'm in the process of buying one more and will be running a raid 0 on both my OS and APPS and as my D: drive for video editing. I dont know if this is the best configuration for what i want, but i will find out and let you know. Either way, get these drives over any other. I wouldn't spend the money again on a WD Raptor or even the velociraptor.

This hard drive was shipped as though it was a book, there was no packing material whatsoever. That is a huge error on Amazon.com's part. It would be easy for the drive to get damaged due to the poor shipping method. You wouldn't know until months later. Fortunately Amazon.com has put the item under review and is not shipping it right now. Wait for another review after the date of this one to be sure the shipping method is decent. The hard drive should not shake when shipped. It should have ample packing material and fit tightly in the box. Otherwise it is supposed to be a very good drive at a decent price.

I know very little about computers other than our original hard drive was running out of space due to the mass amounts of family pictures and video. I talked to some IT guys at work and they preferred Western Digital over Seagate. I read the reviews and was aware this drive was bulk/OEM and it came with nothing. I didn't purchase the right angle SATA II cable but wish I had; ended up buying it at a local store for a few bucks more. Installed this drive on a 2 yr old Dell XPS which came with an extra power supply cord, chassis and screws. Followed the installation instructions posted in the review "Beginner's guide to adding a second hard drive, May 3, 2009, by Sandstone" with a little help from Window's Vista webpage on how to prepare a new hard drive. I can't stress enough how very easy and painless this all was. Now our computer has amazing speed using the original 250 MB drive for program and operating software only and this new 1 TB drive for storage. The price was great and has even dropped $5 since I purchased this drive. I might buy another to replace our original 250 MB hard drive because the specs of these drives are so much faster. A great, great product for the average home computer.

I will not hesitate to purchase another Western Digital Black Caviar 750GB drive as I continue to upgrade my computer (I have an Intel Dual core Duo processor). The only thing I would mention is that it was not stated that this was an OEM drive, which means it comes without documentation or normal packaging -- However, your computer manual should tell you how to install/replace a hard drive. As usual it was a pleasure doing business with Amazon.com and I will certainly continue to do so.SandiB

This is fun because I'm only going to comment about the packaging used to deliver my new WD750 Black. After reading other WD/Amazon reviews that described the sorry state of product packaging, I was 'cautious' about ordering a new HD from Amazon. Well, I can only guess that Amazon actually read some of the criticisms and made a beeline to their shipping department to correct the issue. Here's a description of the packaging condition my new HD arrived in.When I got home from work, the box was lying on my desk. I lifted the box and gently tilted it from side to side. No noise was heard or movement inside the box felt. The weight seemed centered. I opened the box and was greatly surprised to see the new HD nestled between two Styrofoam forms designed to hold the product in the middle and prevent ANY product shifting. The HD was wrapped in a static bag and securely embedded in the Styrofoam blocks at each end.Like I said earlier, I couldn't be more pleased with the shipping and product condition upon arrival. Guess now I'll install the HD and see how it works.Thanks to all who previously critiqued the Amazon shipping. I think your voices were heard.

I purchased this HD to replace a failed 320g HD in my 2 year old aluminum iMac. All I can say is "wow!". Applications and video open almost instantly and I experience no stutter in movies. I broke open the iMac and installed it myself. I then formatted the drive and restored a disk image backup. I now have a much faster drive and an additional 600g of space.For the money, I find this hard to beat. Perhaps the 2TB model might be a contender. This drive is fast, has 32mb cache, advanced technologies, and a 5 year warranty.If I had anything negative to say it would be that it is a little louder than my previous drive but not to the point where it is a big deal. Also, as a performance drive, it uses more power than for example the Caviar Green series. These are minor points and I have to say I 100% recommend this drive.

I've only had this drive installed a few hours, but it is the noisiest drive that I have ever had in a PC. It probably would not matter in an office environment, but it is a bother in a quiet room at home. Hopefully, that will be my only probem with it.

If you happen to buy one of these drives made in 2010+, WD has modified the firmware to prohibit the use of TLER (time-limited error recovery) software necessary to use these drives in typical RAID configurations. Why? So WD can sell you their RE3+ (Raid Enabled) drives that typically cost 50% more. Drives made in 2009 probably allow WDTLER to work.

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.
