Rating: Summary: Good Drive.....Good Price Review: Western Digital is a pretty popular company and for a good reason. I have a this drive but only 20 gigs which i have had for about 2 years and have never had a problem. I tend to beat up on my drives constantly moving,adding,deleting, reformating constantly. But it has always held up.For everyone out there looking for a new hard drive this is a good choice, although i also have a maxtor drive and think that no one makes a more dependable amd reliable drive than maxtor this drive is a nice and little cheaper option. ONE QUICK TIP.........No matter what drive you buy your computer probably has a 5400rpm drive (this is the speed that the drive spins) (revolutions per mintue) spend the extra 10 or 20 bucks and get a 7200rpm you will notice a huge increase in performace from your system anytime you access your hard drive (moving large files, playing games,etc.) I have seen some benchmarks where a 7200 gave a 15% increase in system performance than a 5400rpm !!
