I havent gotten to pop these suckers in yet. I just got them today, and unboxed them to see if they were alright.
The silk bags are amazing. I don't care about the hard drive at this point, SILK BAG.
And the best part, I got one for each hand 8D

This hard drive is fat and reliable. If you can get this hard drive for less than a hundred, then its a steal,. Worth every penny! And if you have money to spend, go for the New VelociRaptor!

Pros:It works, it's fast and SATA is a plus.
Cons: Not much faster than a Seagate (7200, 32MB cache).It runs really hot!!

The price was great or I would not have purchased the upgrade. Performance is outstanding but the drive has a whine, high pitch during use. Would really be nice if WD made the SATA II version.
Raptor reliability and speed for E-IDE April 14, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Western Digital EIDE raptor enterprise series drives are the best of the E-IDE line of drives. I have bought and utilized several of these drives. I have found them to be quite reliable and at 10,000 rpm's the fastest of any E-IDE drive. I bought one of the very first drives of this line, the 34 GB drive, about 8 years ago and it is still going strong. You will not regret purchasing this drive!
