This review is from: Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD2500KS 250GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive
Pros:
Cool quiet and fast.
Like another reviewer, I noticed the WD "Data Lifeguard Diagnostic for Windows" sez an unknown SMART attribute failed. Pretty stupid to report a SMART attribute from a WD drive as "unknown".
Looking closer at the WD site, this diagnostic is for first gen. serial ATA, and this drive is second generation.
The drive seems to be very good. WD's website/diagnostics could stand some improvement.
Cons:
There is apparently no WD diagnostic for this drive that runs under XP etc. I like Seagate's diagnostic better than WD's half-baked one anyway :)
