Good while it lasted
- Pros: Fast, I got the rebate check back
- Cons: It failed after working fine for 1 year and 8 months.
It was working fine, then my computer crashed and when it automatically rebooted the hard drive was not recognized. And it just made this awful clicking noise. I tried installing it in another computer but the hard drive had the same problem.
- Other Thoughts: Fortunately, I backup my hard drive every 1 or 2 weeks. But I still lost about 2 weeks worth of data. I am reluctant to send back the drive to western digital because the drive may have had sensitive data on it.
Ahh Drats!
- Pros: Well...it was fast....
Simple WD RMA process.
Downloadable trouble shooting software on the WD website.
- Cons: Failed after 2 years of light use in a very well ventilated case.
- Other Thoughts: I understand HDs' fail...no big deal. But....after 2 years of use and 3 years remaining on the 5 year warranty, my replacement is refurbished and only comes with a 60 day Warranty.....OH, COME ON WD!!
- Pros: Very fast drive that runs like a scalded dog.
- Cons: After running flawless for about 2 years, the drive would not boot. Died for no apparent reason. It will spin up but just makes a clicking noise.
