    Comment: The Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB hard drive doesn’t look any different than any other 3.5? drive. It maintains the same form factor, and follows the same SATA connector standards. This means you can use this in a case or NAS box that has a standard SATA backplane. With all that in mind, we are p

    Easy to install, bios able to recognize the drive easily. No problem setup in raid, but I didn't really have the time to play with it for too long--just to see if it work.       » READ MORE

    Well what more can be said about WD blacks that hasn't been said already? They are fast drives and they have good reliability factor and the price point is competitie = all you can ask for in a drive. Got to worth 5 stars.      » READ MORE

    This is pretty much the apex of the cost/Gb/performance ladder. I get a windows index score of 5.9 under Win7 64 Pro and it seems to boot quickly and load programs fast. I am using one with an i7-920 system and one in an older core2duo setup and both have performed fine. I'll make the SSD leap once 25nm flash models come out and prices drop  a bit but for the time being these are my go-to drives.       » READ MORE
