5 out of 5 stars Worth the $ b/c it makes you much more productive   October 5, 2008
It is a bit pricey if you are looking at the pricing based on GB/$.
But, it is DEFINITELY worth every penny if you want efficiency.
The seek time on this drive is VERY fast.
For me spending a few extra bucks is well worth it, b/c my this HD makes me much more productive.



4 out of 5 stars Really fast drive   September 17, 2008
This is the fastest non-enterprise drive I've ever used. It benchmarks twice as fast as the stock 320GB 7200rpm drive that came in my Mac Pro. The only thing keeping it from getting 5 stars is that the SATA/Power plugs aren't in the standard spot so some modification to the computer is required to get it working with hot swap/drive sleds. WD has apparently addressed this problem in a new revision. Get that version if you have sleds/hot swap. Also, this drive is very quiet for a 10K drive. The only sound I hear from it is when the heads are accessing something.


1 out of 5 stars Shipped Wrong Item, Will Not Refund   September 8, 2008
 3 out of 19 found this review helpful

I bought this from Amazon, not someone else. It does not ship in the retail package. It was shipped in an envelope that said Western Digital on the outside, but inside it was a Seagate hard drive. I sent it back, but now they won't refund my money.

Go to the store, and buy the retail version of this. Do not trust Amazon to ship no retail items. Every time I have, they have shipped the wrong item, or a bootlegged copy of software.



5 out of 5 stars Very Fast and quiet...   September 1, 2008
It is really fast, no noise at all, and it does not get to hot...


4 out of 5 stars Raptor 300   September 1, 2008
Very nice other than the $300. cost. Seem's to work well within the Win Vista sli, 8GB mem/ram system. Both sysytem info and internet run quickly.
