Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: more than 1 year

Pros: I've have this about 3-4 years. Haven't had any problems. Came loaded on an Acer i got for Christmas and is now in my custom built PC running Vista. Soon as I get $70-80 for a big hard drive, this is it. Only 50GB left and I don't really have much things on it that I know of.

Computer it's in:
PSU - Thermaltake W0106RU 700W
Processor - AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Windsor 3.0GHz
MOBO - ASRock A780GXE/128M AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G ATX AMD Motherboard
VC - EVGA 896-P3-1267-AR GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 Superclocked Edition
SC - Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio
RAM - 8G G-Skill DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
Case - SIGMA ORCA ORCA-WB Black SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Cons: This is 1 of the 2 things I never upgraded. IDK why, just used to the fact it has worked perfectly fine for me. 160GB doesn't go to far nowadays it seems.

Other Thoughts: Works well, would prefer a Western Digital but this is good for now.

Cons: Only lasted 6 months.

Other Thoughts: I understand things like this happen. So I was happy that Hitachi exchanged it pretty quickly.
