Pros: None. DOA

Cons: Against my better judgment I purchased this HD for a new system that I was building. There were some reviews that when they received their HD it was DOA, but I thought to myself. That never happens. I have never even seen it, just heard about it. So, when after I assembled my new system and turned it on I just hear "CLICK...CLICK....CLICK" and so on. The Motherboard Bios would not even detect it. Needless to say I was very bummed. I decided not to wait the week plus to buy a new one so I am just returning this one and I will goto the local store and purchase one so I am not without a computer for a week. Funny enough, the new hd is loud as hell. It works just fine, but very noisy. I would strongly urge people to spend the money for a QUALITY hard rive. Get the 10,000 rpm drive that is proven and very quiet. It is worth it. My hard drive is the loudest part of my computer now. I hate that.

Overall Review: All this said, I have been purchasing computer parts and assembling computers from this website for over 10 years now and this is the first DOA part I have ever received. I am very happy about that. The one thing of note is that most hard drives, even the best rated ones are getting a small percentage of DOA's. I suppose it is just part of mass producing technology. Great company to deal with. I will be a Newegg shopper for life.
