Strengths:
Storage size
Speed
Reliability
Price on sale was reasonable
Weaknesses:
Noisy head parking (presumably)
Not too loud in general, but at idle will thunk every few seconds. If you plan on running this in your PC in a quiet room, look elsewhere. Enterprise drives do not care as much about noise.
Additional Comments:
Would be excellent as a NAS or server drive, but not as a consumer device.
I will likely end up returning this because the loudness during idle is very noticeable. Hard to find a large drive with good performance that doesn't have these issues.
