Work great for me
- Pros: I have 4 in a raid 5 setup I bought at the same time. They work great, although slightly slower than 6 500gb in raid 5.... obviously.... With a high end raid card and some sort of striping\raid5 no concernable performance issues, at least not on a desktop with only medium I\O
- Cons: hmm.. their not 20k RPM and free?
2 Drives Non-responsive
- Pros: none for these two
- Cons: Both drives were unresponsive. I've had much better luck with the older WD "Green" RE drives, but thought that since these were destined for a RAID setup, the TLEP or whatever would be beneficial.
- Other Thoughts: I've had much better luck with the older WD "Green" RE drives, but thought that since these were destined for a RAID setup, the TLEP or whatever would be beneficial.
Quiet enough for my aluminum iMac
- Pros: Exceptionally quiet, lower power draw than stock drive = less heat and stress for my 24" iMac.
- Cons: A bit slower than the stock 7200 rpm drive.
- Other Thoughts: 7 incident-free months (and counting)

| Features |
IntelliPower — A fine-tuned balance of spin speed, transfer rate and cache size designed to deliver both significant power savings and solid performance.
IntelliSeek — Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise, and vibration.
IntelliPark — Delivers lower power consumption by automatically unloading the heads during idle to reduce aerodynamic drag.
StableTrac — Secures the motor shaft at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking, during read and write operations
Preemptive Wear Leveling (PWL) — Proactively monitors and prevents magnetic wear during high read/write duty cycle applications.
RAID-specific time-limited error recovery (TLER) – This feature, unique to WD, prevents drive fallout caused by the extended hard drive error-recovery processes common to desktop drives.
Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward (RAFF) optimizes operation and performance when the drives are used in vibration-prone multi-drive systems such as rackmounted servers.
1.2 million hours MTBF – The highest available reliability rating on a high-capacity drive. |
