Features
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

5 out of 5 eggs

Pros: Drive is fairly quiet as I can't hear it over my case fans (which are a touch on the loud side). Works well with no problems in 3 months of constant use including transferring 20GB on and off it as fast as it can go. It was exactly as described and fit my plug and go needs for it.

Cons: Haven't run into any Cons so far.

Other Thoughts: WD generally makes solid hard drives and this one seems to be no exception.

5 out of 5 eggsNice Buy

Pros: You get exactly what you pay for. The sound on the hard drive is very quiet sitting right next to your but if its in another area, no sound whatsoever.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: I would recommend.

5 out of 5 eggsWD SATA 320GB

Pros: Very Easy To Install, Especially If Its A Secondary (Extra) Drive, Unless Your PC Is Right Next To You, You'll Never Hear It....

Cons: Wasn't Able To Use The Cable That Came With It, I Recommend Getting a SATA Cable From New Egg, Which They Suggest Now When You Add The Item To Your Cart.

Other Thoughts: I've Had 6PC's In My Lifetime, 4 Of Which Burnt Out On Me, But All In All I Can Say That Out Of Everything That Burnt Out My WD Drive Always Worked, It Never Burnt Out, WD Is A Very Reliable Hard Drive. I Use My PC's And Hard Drives For Audio Recording, Editing, Composing, And Even Video Editing, Great HD.

4 out of 5 eggsbetter than what i used to have

Pros: cant beat the price for 320 gig drive, plus its quieter than the seagate barracuda that came on my computer, you can still hear it writing but no where near as annoying as the seagate.

Cons: not "whisper" quiet but good enough
