Ужасно

I bought 2 of these. So far I installed one and works very well.Don't forget to enable the AHCI (instead of IDE) mode in your PC.Just google "enable ahci" to get instructions.Update: THIS DRIVE IS DEAD. The bios doesn't recognize it any more. I tried everything: switching cables, SATA ports, BIOS configurations, DLGdiag program from western digital (code 0120 - no drive connected). Now I don't know if I would send it back yo WD or not, because my personal data is there. I backed up my data, but not the full Windows configuration, so I am up to countless hours of machine setup.I hope when solid state hard drives come to the market they have a better reliability. I lost faith in Western Digital, but I don't think the other competitors are brilliant.Update: I sent the dead drive to WD and they sent me another one back. :-|

I almost didn't purchase this drive because I thought it might not be compatible with the cabling and connectors of a 3 Gb/s drive. I also thought that it wouldn't work due to the higher throughput of this drive. I was wrong on all accounts. I installed this next to my other 2 TB 3 Gb/s drive and it works perfectly. It has been installed for weeks and multiple test programs give it perfect ratings. Bonus....when you're ready to upgrade to a system that fully supports 6 Gb/s [SATA 3 & USB 3] then you're all set. Since the 2 TB 6Gb/s drive [Western Digital WD2002FAEX] is less than the 2 TB 3Gb/s drive [Western Digital WD2001FASS] it's a no-brainer. Go for it!!!

I bought four of these drives for a gaming system which I am running in a RAID 10 setup (2TB) in Windows 7 64-bit (ASUS mb, Intel RAID controller). Had problems right away in RAID 5. Attributed that to the version of the Intel Storage Manager (v8.9) and RAID chipset drivers I was running. Updated to Intel RST v 9.6 and converted the RAID 5 to a four drive RAID 10.Seemed to work fine, great performance, but -- within a few days I saw a drive drop out of the RAID 10 array and go into "rebuild" status, only to successfully complete the rebuild then drop out again a short time later. Very annoying and kills RAID performance when the array goes into a "degraded" state because of a rebuild.Google "Western Digital Caviar" "TLER" for details. Western Digital recently disabled the ability to adjust a firmware parameter (TLER) on these drives, the result of which causes the drives to exhibit timing issues with RAID controllers and as such, causes the drives to inadvertently drop out of the RAID array and go into "rebuild" status. The decision to disable (i.e., "cripple") the firmware was apparently an executive decision motivated by the desire to protect the more expensive Western Digital RE4 "RAID ready" product line.As such, do NOT buy these drives unless you are going to use them as stand alone drives for simple desktop applications (NOT gaming or anything involving high end SATA II controllers or RAID capability).UPDATE -- no drives have dropped out in over a week and I am starting to gain confidence they may perform reasonably well in a RAID 10 configuration (depending on your controller chipset and driver version). Proceed with caution, YMMV.

Amazon's product review of this product is incorrect. This is not an Advanced Format drive as stated. "WD Advanced Format technology increases media format efficiency, thus enabling larger drive capacities. WD Advanced Format drives are specifically optimized for Mac and the latest Windows operating systems such as Windows Vista and Windows 7"The advanced format is only available currently on the "Caviar GREEN drives" All "BLACK" drives are 512kb sector drives not 4k. Check description on Western Digitals web site using product WD1002FAEX or under Caviar Black drive description. I confirmed this via WD tech support.In the future, WD and other manufactures will be going to 4k sector drives.Having said that, this appears to be a nice drive. You might see some speed increase due to 64mb cache but not from SATA 6Gb transfer, no drive can read/write that speed. 5 year warranty, 1tb capacity, makes a nice boot drive. I will purchase a "Green" drive as a data and back-up drive for less heat, noise, and power consumption.I purchased this from Amazon and I ordered the factory packaged drive, not the bare, less packaging drive, and I'm glad I did. The package shipped via UPS arrived smashed in on one end on the outer box. Had this been the minimal packaging I think the drive would have been damaged. Amazon needs to fully wrap shipments in better protective packages to survive transport.I erased, zeroed and reformatted this drive to use in a MacPro. For Mac boot drives, do not use as it comes, reformat to Apple Partition Map(APM) journaled for PowerPC (G3,G4,G5) and as GUID journaled for all Intel Macs. Time Machine likes GUID, but you do not need to journal if using only for back-up or data storage. Western Digitals web-site gets this wrong as well, and says to use APM for Intel Macs. Intel macs will not boot from APM drives, but can read/write to them.Hope Amazon corrects the product description.Hope WD corrects knowledge base on partition/format for Macs.

I bought this drive to store pictures, music and files on as replacement for an older WD drive that failed. I went with the Black series for it's speed and reliability. Amazon's packaging was fine (see pics that I added to product above) and installation, initialization and formatting went without a hitch. The drive performed very well; was fast and pretty quiet (especialy compared to the OEM WD Blue drive in my PC). I did notice that the drive would get rather warm when I still had the computer case open but, I have three fans spinning in there so didn't think much of it. Six weeks later, I received a "drive not accessible" error and after running the WD Data LifeGuard diagnostics, determined that the drive had multiple bad sectors and failed the SMART test. I tried to recover the sectors but, it wouldn't work. A call to WD tech support confirmed that it was toast and they sent me out a replacement. The interesting part was that the replacement was shipped in nothing more than a small corrugate box with just the drive and the plastic end caps inside. The new drive has been in for two days now and so far it's OK. I gave this 3 stars for failing after 6 weeks but, still think it's a good drive for the money and believe that I had some bad luck. If I write back in 6 weeks with another failed drive, I wont be so charitable.

First, this is a state of the art, newly introduced drive from WDC. In my opinion it is the best general-use drive you can get at this price point.Prior to my purchase, I read several negative reviews from prior customers who voiced dissatisfaction with Amazon's packaging of OEM drives. Any chance of damage in shipping would indeed be reason to shop elsewhere for such a sensitive item, but on one such page of ranting and frustration I saw a note from Amazon that they had recently addressed these concerns, so I proceeded to order the drive.Here's the latest and I hope final word on this issue: Problem solved. The drive arrives sealed in an anti-static bag, secured by two end-mounted shock absorbing plastic caddies, then double-boxed with the usual sealed air padding. The redundant packing system appears to be well-designed and the drive has been working like a champ.So buy with confidence and kudos to Amazon for responding to customer reviews and ensuring appropriate, safe packaging for this product.
