cool running

Reviewed By: scstang on 11/20/2009

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Had for over 4 months, so far so good. This drive has be on for 4 months straight in a whs. I have not had any problems and the drive runs pretty cool.

Cons: I little on the slow side, but know that from the start. Low Power usually doesn't mean fast performance.

Prone to Clicking

Reviewed By: ekental on 11/20/2009

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

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: It was working fine for the duration that it did work.

Heating wasn't an issue, I could dissipate heat without an external fan. (~37 C)

It was relatively quiet even when actively seeking.

Cons: After a month and a half, I would get a clicking noise periodically when I attempted to seek ~ 1/2 of all attempts.

I'm assuming this means that the servo of the head is resetting position because it's losing track of the platter pattern. It shouldn't happen that often on most HDDs, but on this one the problem is chronic.
The process often repeats many times for upwards of 30 seconds. Needless to say the disk isn't reading when it's busy resetting and performance is crippled.

I see as I write this review many others have had this problem, and would definitely urge others to avoid this drive.
