Western Digital 500 GB Caviar Blue SATA 3 Gb/s 7200 RPM 8 MB Cache Bulk/OEM Desktop Hard Drive

This is a great hard drive. I've had no problemsand don't anticipate any in the future. I've owned several WD drive's since the 90's and will continue to use these great drives!!! RB

I had a drive that went bad and was hoping I could buy the exact same model number and swap the control board on it to access the data on the bad drive. Needless to say it didn't work. However this is a good drive and will most likely use it in my system at a future date. Shipping was also very quick and got it before the estimated date.

You hear of all the bragging people do on how good Western Digital hard drives are. I rarely used this hard drive. It kept all my music as backup. Rarely ever running it, then a month after warranty this p,o,s fails. as if the power was shut off to the drive. Ive tried it in both my tower and external enclosure, both with same results, failer failer failer. never again will I buy WD.

Works great, fast shipping
