Cons:
None so far. I haven't kept up with the standards enough to know if my results are on target or not.
Oh, I was slightly miff'd with Newegg's rather poor packaging job on these bare drives. They were just wrapped in bubble wrap, which is fine. But one of mine had, how do I say... no bubble on one of it's sides? Meaning, if it were on the edge of the box it was bouncing around in, it would have gotten ZERO shock absorption. Not good. I took pictures just in case I get a early failure.
Speed is good newegg... but getting my gear in one piece is even more important.
