Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
As hard drive capacities increase, the power required to run those drives increases as well. WD Caviar Green drives make it possible for energy-conscious customers to build systems with higher capacities and the right balance of system performance, ensured reliability, and energy conservation. Overall power consumption has been reduced by up to 40% compared to standard desktop drives with the combination of WD's IntelliSeek, IntelliPark and IntelliPower technologies. Caviar Green drives yield an average drive power savings of 4-5 watts over standard desktop drives making it possible for energy-conscious customers to build systems with higher capacities and the right balance of system performance, ensured reliability, and energy conservation. These power savings equate to reducing CO2 emission by up to 13.8 kilograms per drive per year. By using environmentally-conscious PCs with Caviar Green drives, large organisations with many desktop computers can minimise their carbon footprint and make real savings.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent (Topfield) PVR Upgrade Drive, 10 Nov 2008
    By Gerdsooz (Winchester, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
    I fit this drive in my Topfield 5800 PVR last week as an upgrade to a previous 750GB Samsung SATA drive! The Samsung drive was first class but this one trumps every aspect of my old drive (including capacity and price): It is quieter (almost inaudible), faster to spin up/down, cooler to the touch and of course less power hungry. I use a Sabrent SBT-STDB SATA to IDE Port Mini Converter which has worked successfully in my Toppy with both my Samsung and my new Western Digital drives. If you decide to get this drive for your Toppy make sure you read the relevant sections of the toppy.org.uk for further details on how to upgrade your hard disc drive.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Things you probably should know before buying, 6 Nov 2008
    By Gary Fox "GaryGadget" (Sheffield, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I bought a pair of these to create a home server for backup purposes, and I chose the 'green' ones because I figured they would not get as warm as others (I wanted to fit them into a small form factor PC). For that purpose, they're fine - in fact it's very hard to tell they're actually doing anything, there's no activity LEDS on them.
    However, these are shipped as OEM units, which means you get nothing apart from the disk - no cables, no instructions, no screws, not even any jumpers (which to be fair, you probably won't need - I needed them to throttle the drives because my PC doesn't support SATA-II). These units only support a SATA power connector - no ATX/Molex connector, so you'll probably need to buy at least a SATA cable and a Molex->SATA power cable too.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Superb Drive Works Perfectly in a iMac G5, 30 Nov 2008
    Okay, I'm a little two minded on this one. I did alot of research as I wanted to upgrade my Apple iMac from 160gb factory drive to this 1TB. Alot of people in Americas noted this was one of the best and Amazon have it listed at a great price.

    Got the delivered next day with my amazon prime membership. I spent all weekend trying to get it working MacOS kept reporting a drive had been ejected. I spent hours before deciding it must be faulty.

    Using amazon returns service I was with a new one within a day or so, and sent the first one back. I've not looked back. Fitting was simple - remove 3 screws to access the iMac then a torx t20 to remove the holding plate for the drive. I used SuperDuper software to backup an image and restore it to the new one and was up and running within an hour.

    Having used this for a while now, the machine is much quieter and really fast speeds spining up the hard drives.

    All in all a great drive backed up by faultless service by Amazon.
