Strengths: I have been using this for about 1 week and have had no problems. Easy to install in my Mac G5. Quiet and super quick to access. Very competitive pricing with good guarentee.
Weakness: None
I would highly recommend this drive to anyone who is using a serial ATA system. Very good warrenty, good pricing as compared to other major brands. It is very quiet and super fast with both read and write.
Strengths: Speed
Weakness: None
Boot your computer with a Windows 98se Floppy Startup Disk first. Use this to format in Fat32 with large hard drive support 'yes'. Next, boot your computer with your Windows XP startup disk, either your CD or 6 Floppies. Next, hit all the things to install a new install of Windows XP, delete the current partition, make new partition, quick format NTFS. The purpose of this is not only to use the...
Strengths: Really hot speed. I was transfering massiev files and had no problem at all ;) hehehe IT ROCKS
Weakness: None that I can see so far.
I love this. Add a pci controller with more SATA and it rocks the house! :) WOO! I think this is amazing. I have a p4 2.4 GHz with 1GB of RAM and have 2 other 80 GB Western Digital hds and a 120GB Western Digital hd! :) It is amazing! :) I wouldn't use anything else! :) I have a good feeling about this drive, so I am not worried.
Strengths: Work Great. Good Quality.
Weakness: None
I Bought the second one a month ago from ZipZoomFly. My first one came with My Dell Dimension XP last October. My Dell have 4 drives The first two are Serial 250 GB, other two are EIDE 120 GB Hard Drive. They are all Western Digital products. They are all work great.
Strengths: Great Drive
Weakness: The Software for Partitioning the Drive does not have good directions. Can cause many problems attempting to Partition for a WindowsXP install
Maybe it is just me not understanding how to partition a drive on a clean install of XP. I was able to create the 137 Gig partition but using the software CD WD provided was confusing. The option for the WD Overlay, I think they call it, confused the XP operating system and cause Boot Errors along with other errors. I recommend partitioning to 137 Gig FAT32 (Windows 98) option for Partitioning in...
Strengths: Feels like SCSI DRive. Low noise.
Weakness: None so far.
This behemoth has storage capacity to spare, and access to it is extremely fast. The eight megabyte cache really helps and data access seems almost instantaneous. I can barely hear the drive spinning when data is being accessed. Overall great hard drive by Western Digital.
Strengths: Cheaper than Maxtor
Weakness: Terrible quality hard drive
I have 2 250GB SATA hard drives, one of them works like charm, no problem at all, but the second one clicks all the time when I boot up the computer. Send it back to reseller, reseller replaced another brand new drive, but does the same thing. I sent it back to Western Digital, WD sent me a brand new one but it's not working either. This drive is part of my raid0 but now its not. It've been 3...
I cannot write about the product as I have not bee able to install it. It doesn't format and I've been trying to get the seller to take it back but they don't respond. I'm waiting to fill out a claim at the moment.
