Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Large amount of space, quick.
Cons: Large size slows it down, physically large.
Other Thoughts: Purchased this drive to replace a 250 gig IDE drive. Despite the increase in size, it runs quite a bit faster. It's large size doesn't help it spin up and down. I've never heard of a drive actually exploding, and if you've ever had one apart, you'd realize quickly that it's not really possible.

COOL
Cool operation results in the highest reliability, even in intensely hot environments such as digital video recorders. That's why these, the coolest on the market, are the drives of choice for the world's leading consumer electronics and PC manufacturers.
QUIET
The technology that Tom's Hardware Guide called "very fast and nearly silent" is used throughout this family of drives. Our WhisperDrive technology minimizes noise to levels near the threshold of human hearing.
To cut seek noise, SoftSeek technology streamlines read/write seeking algorithms, resulting in more efficient operation.
