Great pad.
Pros: Thin and sleek. Just the right size. Soft pad that won't slip on wood desk. Far better quality than mouse pads which are few dollars cheaper.
Cons: The white "Fellowes" decal eventually gets dirty and starts looking ghetto. Wish they didn't put that decal on it.
stress test before you use these!
Pros: These drives are quiet. They never even got warm to the touch after 2 hours building in RAID. I am proud of my cooling system. SATA 6.0Gb is a great marketing gimmick.
Cons: Bought some of these for a cheap install on RAID 1 RACK. I try to buy drives from different retailers. One out of two from Newegg failed within 6 hours. I knew I took a chance with this drive, but what can I say, I like to save a buck (or 10). Now I'm stuck waiting for RMA to ship back. What a hassle man! WD should start paying me to test their faulty drives.
Overall Review: I used to be a WD guy! If Newegg didn't pack so well I'd think it was the UPS man.
Pros: I love this drive. Runs quiet for my needs and not too hot.
Cons: None
Overall Review: I've always been a WD guy but I've had more success with the Seagates the past year or two. Perhaps the tables are turning.
Basic
Pros: Haven't had any problems. There weren't any issues punching the cables in. Wire diagrams were helpful... its been a few years so reference was convenient.
Cons: Skip this and get something better if you have foil shielded cable.
Overall Review: Basic, cheap; just what i needed.
great
Pros: high quality copper heatsink. fan is very quiet. fits multiple sizes. everything i wanted... and more. (see below)
Cons: wish there was something similar for a lower price. i just needed a cheap solution to fix a noisy heatsink/fan on my mobo chipset.
Overall Review: shipped fast
awesome
Comments: got four of these in a raid 5, works great, no problems. (700 GB sounds better than 1 TB doesn't it?) performance is great but its hard to compare, now being on raid. it's glad to see. newegg is the bomb, always hookin' me up!! btw, the only difference between both part numbers (13G0255, 14R9464) is that the latter comes in improved shipping packaging.
