3 out of 5 stars Packaging SUX but WD support was very good   March 9, 2010

When i first got this item i was shocked at the packaging so i submitted photos here... whoever is not supervising these drives being sent out should be fired... read the ongoing comments... and it is also not just this drive, it is across the board from Amazon (Western Digital)... when i called WD direct they were very helpful and understanding... all worked fine from WD but the Amazon originated shipping was a joke by ANY standard... sooo... beware of the shipping... BTW the drive was damaged but did not show up till after the 30 day Amazon return policy expired... Amazon did not want anything to do with it... so i just warn all look at the photos and you make the call...

otherwise the drive is excellent... it's a Western Digital Black Baby!

sorry Amazon, but you need to fix what is obviously broken... please fix and stop wasting everyones time with returns and RMA's...

namaste

BTW the three star rating is balanced out... Amazon= 1 Star and Western Digital gets 5 Stars



4 out of 5 stars Arrived safe and working   March 8, 2010
Bob (Laguna Niguel, CA)
After reading all the reviews on the Amazon packaging (or lack of)problems, I was sweating whether I am going to get an all bangup hard drive. Fortunately it arrived in one piece and after installation seemed to be working ( at least the PC recognized it). For that I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I had to sweat it out.

5 out of 5 stars WD Caviar Black are the best bang for the buck performers!   March 4, 2010

If you know anything about the problems Seagate had last year and have read about how well the WD Black's run. Then why are you even reading this! Until the come out with a new SATA technology the WD Black's will be the best you can get from a price point of view!


5 out of 5 stars Quiet, and fast!   March 3, 2010
D. Knowlton (Wareham, Ma. USA)
I already had the required cables, if you aren't replacing your current hdd you will need to purchase a sata cable. No problems with installation, works as expected.
