I'm a photographer so need lots of fast storage space so I got 2 (more) of these to replace a couple of smaller working drives, and guess what ... they do just what they advertise (and despite being larger seem to be quicker than my old WD caviar black drives, extra cache perhaps?).
... so what else is there to say except WD are the only disk manufacturer I trust these days (I always stay away from "green power" drives though, heard a few horrors about them).

If you are after quick, fairly big and fast HDD's then these are the mommas ... and at this price a pretty sweet deal.

Good performance 5 Jan 2011
I like this hard drive a lot, got it as a replacement for a 750GB Seagate Barracuda that had a problem. The only gripe I have is the thing is the noisiest HDD that I have ever had, it clicks away merrily almost constantly.... but that may just be because of my case, and it really doesn't annoy me that much. After what happened to my old drive I am happy to know that it is alive and well; and I really don't like the green drives that are available.

Simply brilliant 3 Aug 2010
By Sashauk
I bought three of these for a raid solution and they work brilliantly. Even on their own they are the fastest 7200rpm drives I have have used to date. Only surpassed by the 10000 rpm Raptor or Veloci-raptor drives from WD.

Thanks

One of the best 7,200rpm HDDs available
The WD Caviar Black is one of the best 7,200rpm hard drives you can buy at the moment. Only 2 others really compare, the Seagate Barracuda and the Hitachi Deskstar. Read more

A worthwhile upgrade even on an older PC.
This hard disk was an upgrade to my son's several year old gaming rig. The PC was pretty state of the art when we bought it, but is now increasingly becoming out of date. Read more
