Western Digital Blue WD2500AAKX 250GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
  • Solid performance and reliability for everyday computing
  • Perfect for Desktop PCs

Pros:

These drives perform well. Good for budget builds or business class PC's.

Cons:

I cracked two eggs because I had purchased 4 and two of them were DOA. One refused to do anything and the other had the "click of death"

Overall Review:

Newegg handled the RMA and I had replacement drives within a week of sending them back.

Manufacturer Response:

We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced with the Caviar Blue, as this is not the typical experience with the product.
It is unfortunate that you experienced two DOA drives, as our drives are all rigorously tested to ensure they are in good working condition before leaving our warehouse. We understand your situation and will gladly replace your in-warranty drive, as we stand by our products and their associated warranties. Our goal is to provide world class customer service, and part of that goal in this situation would be to replace your drive, and investigate the cause relating to the products defect.
