Hello,
I received my 1TB HDD quickly, installed it without any problems.
Fully satisfied.
I am very pleased with it.
Chosen for its robust reputation but time will tell.
For the time being it remains a noisy record like the others.
Replacing a 250GB Wd which after more than 10 years of service decided it was time to start with the Smart mistakes.
Used in storage
Path of exile installed on it still lags a lot, but it's playable again.
It used to be a slide show between a dated config and a disk that was claiming its retirement.
The 7200Tpm is good, but the latency between 12 and 13Ms for a current platter disk techno is no longer a dream.
To be dedicated to storage or data that requires a reasonable transfer rate. Very quiet and does not heat up 30°C max in an open tower.
Hd movies are ok, recent games not so much.
Does the job but it's still a mechanical hard drive
I have been a long time loyal customer of Western Digital, and this purchase, made as part of an emergency repair, has given me complete satisfaction. As soon as I received it, the hard disk was tested with the "Hard Disk sentinel 5.4 pro" software, no bad surprises, the announced performances are there. The "Black" series from WD guarantees good performances, but they also have to be paid for: nothing is free!...
All that remains is to graft it onto the sick machine, but that's another story.
Be careful though, this product is OEM, it will only suit people who already have some experience of working on the insides of a machine.
