It Works

WD Ultrastar DC HC550 18TB Hard Drive 3.5" Internal 512MB SATA 7200 RPM 512E SE NP3 DC HC550 0F38459 (WUH721818ALE6L4)

Pros: -It plugs and play

Cons: -None so far - It does make an odd noise when doing file transfers if its been idle for and extended period of time.

Overall Review: This is a solid HDD so far. I plugged it in and was recognized. Keep in mind you will about 10% of stated capacity when formatted (mine showed 16.3TB after formatting) though that is not unexpected. Drive does have a 5 Year Warranty. Was able to confirm through WD Online chat, they also advised that Data Center drives like this it is NOT necessary to register the product. WD chat was very helpful. I would buy again

Pros: When it did work, it worked great.

Cons: Died after about a week. Tried multiple ways and times to try and solve it, but no luck. It eventualy died completely and the OS would not even see it or recognize it.

Overall Review: Newegg was a great help on the RMA process. The RMA process was great.

Works as advertised

Pros: Works great. No problems so far. Works fine on Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit.

Cons: Had issues with the header setup for the power, reset, HDD light etc. the power LED lead was not compatible with my ANTEC Three Hundred, but i am not going to take off an egg for that cause its no big deal.

Overall Review: Extensive BIOS settings plus the ability to save different BIOS settings profiles.
