Great buy when price is right

- Strengths:
- - Pretty cheap (dollar-wise; purchased a while back when they were $80/each) - Great dollar for GB ratio - Easy to install
- Weaknesses:
- - 5400rpm spin rate
- Summary:
- I have 3 of these... Great drives for me so far... 5400rpm rate doesn't affect me much as they're in a RAID array that is really only used for media storage and playback. Can easily get 70mb/s write rates and no problems with read rates for my purposes. Once the prices start to drop back to where they should be, I will definitely grab another 1 or 2. If you're just going to use it for mass storage and you're not going to be writing or reading heavily, then I'd recommend these any day.
Great Drives for large storage.

- Strengths:
- Low heat, big capacity.
- Weaknesses:
- Slow spindle/transfer speed
- Summary:
- I've just installed 4 of these in a media server for storing large amounts of video and audio files on my LAN configured in a RAID5. Saw in the product description that they are not made to be put into a RAID environment but they seem to be working fine. For the average home user these will do the trick just fine. Even with 4 of these in my server rebuilding at full speed with no additional cooling they did not heat up past 35 degrees.

- Strengths:
- Great drive! Large Storage!
- Weaknesses:
- Way to much money for these drives! DO NOT BUY! If no one guys prices will go down! If we all buy them up for these high prices then the prices will stay high!
- Summary:
- If you can't get this drive for under 100 bucks don't bother! I bought my 4 drives for under 70 bucks each!
Great storage drive

- Strengths:
- - Quiet - Low heat - Reliable! - No vibrations - Good data transfer speed
- Weaknesses:
- - $$$, expensive right now due to flooding in Thailand, but they were MUCH cheaper a few months ago
- Summary:
- I have 10 of these drives running(24/7) in separate RAID 1 and JBOD arrays. 4 (2 x 2-drive raid 1 array) in a home servers with fairly heavy media access with frequent copies of entire contents read for transfer to other drives. 4 (2 x 2-drive raid 1 arrays) in a client's business server with 10~ people accessing data on array as well as daily backups(read entire drive contents). 2 (1 x 2-drive JBOD raid array) 3.62TB array! full of media, running reliably nearly 24/7. NONE HAVE FAILED!
