2nd Dud in 1 year 10/28/2014
This review is from: WD VelociRaptor WD3000HLHX 300GB 10000 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Pros:
Not quite sure there are any "Pros"
Cons:
This one is replacing another Raptor that went bad within 1 year (actually I think it was bad from the start but I hung in with it until just recently it died). I'm not sure why since this was a straight exchange in my system. Nothing else changed. Clean Win 7 install... everything fresh. The mobo drivers are installed correctly etc etc. I cannot get better than 126/126 mb/s for the read/writes. This thing is a dog. It's going to be sent back this week.
Overall Review:
Maybe I bought the wrong drive? This one was marked "Enterprise Storage" so maybe the read/writes aren't supposed to be that fast(?)
