> 3 dayI had no complaints until I found (with CrystalDiskInfo) that there were uncorrectable and pending sectors beginning to build up at an alarming rate after only 4 months of owning this drive. The warranty period is 5 years, so I was shocked it would fail so soon, but WD did agree to an RMA. However, the other reason I would not purchase this (or another WD product in the near term) is their very poor RMA process and support. Not only do they not pay for return shipping or send you a replacement in advance, they will void your warranty if you dont pack it right. Of course I plan to follow the instructions they lay out, but it is not confidence inspiring or a friendly process. Sometimes you can find a 4TB SSD for barely more than this product; I recommend going that route instead.

> 3 dayOrdered this drive to expand the storage of my computer. It wasnt prime shipping, but it arrived much faster than estimated (delivered in 2 days!). The shipping packaging was very good, they used proper hard drive packaging. The drive was in a special holder and inside a separate box as well. It also came with an SATA cable, which was very nice. Install was just plugging in the power and data and running disk management. Everything running great.

> 3 dayWestern Digital hard drives are my choice when I pick a new hard drive. I used to live near their California HQ and was a former head of a large PC user group and learned WD has good quality. This drive is more expensive than others because i researched which one was good for handling heavy graphic read and writes when using video editing software and the file was on an external drive. This is a SATA drive and runs the faster 7200 RPM with a large cache. You have to either install this an internal drive, or buy an external drive case for this, with cables, etc. This is a do it yourself product and not for novice users. This drive is NOT a consumer product. You have to go to the website to get the instructions on how to format this drive, etc. That is what they mean by Bulk/OEM labels - it lacks any extras included with consumer hard drives in a box. You have to order the cables you need, and download the configuration software from the WD website, which is fairly easy to do. If you dont want to configure a drive like this, find a consumer external drive with the CD, cable, etc. and buy it instead. You need to know if your PC will handle large partitions, ie. 2 TB, or you have to format it with several partitions due to older operating systems. I did not buy a separate external drive box, but bought an Anker external open case with power supply and capability to connect to both USB 3.0 AND eSata connections. I did that because using the eSata port on my old laptop was much faster than 2.0 USB. But, I can move the box and drive to my desktop which has a USB 3.0 add in card. Both eSata and USB 3.0 are much faster transfer speeds than USB 2.0 and this drive can handle it. I have included pictures of the drive working fine in the Anker case so you can see both in use. Note: Hard drives have standard connections to the case or internal slot for power and data transfer. The ability to provide USB 3.0 or eSata connections is built into the case, not the hard drive. Both USB 2.0 and eSata require special cables, so dont forget to get them if you do this. In my case, since I used the external open Anker docking station, I didnt need cables. I just slid the drive into the docking slot and the connection for data and power was made. The Anker unit also has an on off switch. Of course, if you use this drive internally in your system, that is a different process and involves other tasks if you make it your primary drive with an operating system. I did not do that, so mine is used primarily for a video data file drive and has not been setup with booting capability. You cant go wrong with Western Digital. (Unless they sell out to someone,then watch what changes in quality). You can get this drive in 1 TB, 2 TB or 3 TB versions. I got the 2 TB version and it cost about 30% more than WD drives with lower speeds and features.

> 3 dayThe seller was Amazon. I paid 70 bucks. The drive installed just fine for me. After installation and formatting, the drive shows 931 GB free space. My PC is running Windows XP Home SP3. I am using this drive as an extra data drive; I did not install the operating system on it. This is an advanced format drive. To learn what this means, use google and search for western digital advanced format. I needed a data cable, so I purchased
