Fast

Western Digital Black WD7501AALS 750GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: So much faster than my old Raptor and Caviar Blue. Got it on sale so it was a great price per GB. 2 processors instead of 1.

Cons: 3 platters instead of 2? Still fast.

Overall Review: Formats to 698GB NTFS. Seq: 124Mb/s read, 109Mb/s write. 512k: 61Mb/s read, 98Mb/s write. 4k: 0.9Mb/s read, 2.6Mb/s write.

Pros: Price

Cons: Installed the drive today and it's already clicking randomly. My other 2 WD drives don't do that. Is that normal for this one or is it bad?

Overall Review: Formats to 465GB
