Pros: Was good and fast for the first couple of day.

Cons: Died within a week.

Overall Review: I've seen many, many hard drives in my time but I have NEVER seen a brand new hard drive have reading arm failure in under a week. Had a brand new system working for approximately 3 days after loading regular software. System wasn't even connected to the Internet yet. Attempted a bit-stream copy of it to save what was on there and got dingbat characters all over the system structure. Completely useless copy was made. I can understand a hard drive dying in a few or couple months under hard stress, but not a few days. That's just ridiculous.
