Review: Dropped and still works! - Like an idiot I dropped it of a desk and still works fine. Little bit of ticking, who knows how long it will last but been working for two years so far.
Review: Great drive! - This is WD Black Range of HDD for PC's. The Black Range of HDD are the "full fat" versions of their drives for maximum performance. This means they run at full speed at 7200rpm and SATA-3 600MB/s. To help with performance the drive also has a 64MB cache. This is a good size drive for your expansion needs. 2TB (unformatted) will work under Windows 7 without any extra drivers or software. The drive formats to 1.81TB under Win7. The drive is well packaged. It comes factory sealed in an anti-static bag. The drive is then securely suspended inside a box. This box is then packaged in another box which has plenty of brown paper padding. So previous reports of bad packaging are not valid anymore. The drive itself is like any modern SATA drive in appearance so nothing new there. I am happy to report that the noise levels of the drive are quiet in my quiet PC case. It is no louder than my ultra quiet Samsungs. The official figure is 29dB(mean) for idle. This drive on my old system (SATA-2 300MB/s) gives me a max of about 168MB/s Read and 165.5MB/s Write. The drive comes with a 5 year warranty. Recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but noisy. Woeful packaging.
*by S***N on 4 March 2015*

Came in packacking that can only be described as a joke (single layer of bubble wrap loose in a cardboard box), and was not in the manufacturer packaging that I expected. The disk itself installed with no problems, although I had to run lots of diagnostics to assure myself that it was working OK after the woeful packaging. My only concern is that this is VERY noisy. When it is seeking it makes a dreadful knocking (more of a loud burbling) noise, as the heads move around. I've done all the diagnostics and searched online and have assured myself that this noise is just normal for this disk. Compared to the drive it is replacing this thing is way too noisy. I bought this as my media and backup drive (I use an SSD as my OS drive and an external HDD as my deep backup drive) and I'm going to be keeping a really close eye on it over the next couple of months. Meanwhile I'm making sure that all my important files are also being backed up in the cloud.
