Works pretty good.

Reviewed By: Devin on 10/8/2008

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: It's been reliable and working great.

Cons: I had the harddrive crash twice when I turned off my computer without shutting it down. Luckily I made two partitions, the first partition was 80gb, the second was 320gb. That saved me a lot of hassle cause all I had to do is reformat my 80gb partition which is the partition for the operating system and applications. confusing but helped me.

Other Thoughts: For this drive, I'd recommend keeping your safedata on the second partition while keeping your applications on drive C.

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Very quiet drive, fast transfer speeds, very large capacity.

Cons: None, it works as it should and hasn't failed

Other Thoughts: Runs pretty cool, and is much quieter than the 500 GB of another manufacturer that I own(has something to do with the ocean.....)
