Terrible purchase, only wasted money.

I bought a hard drive along with two dice of RAM. The operative was in a pimply packaging film, and ZhD "went out for a walk in what his mother gave birth to." I thought: "Well, probably thought of how to deliver the goods safe and sound," and put off checking this "miracle" with the letter Z on the back burner. I got it, installed it, and away we go . The system sees it, which is good. But with any attempt to contact him, the disk behaves like a football team Gas Meats. On attempts to call…

Pros
  • Well, quickly. Can be scrapped. Well imitates the crackling of wood. Or crickets. He hasn't decided yet.
Cons
  • Zhd is inoperable due to delivery. Who thought of putting a bare hard drive in a cardboard box that is larger in volume than this hard drive? Not only does the disc fly around the box, but it is also not packed from the word at all. Just a bare hard drive in a factory film. Everything. At least they wrapped it with 3 layers of electrical tape, I don’t know.

Full compliance with the manufacturers assurances, high quality.

At the moment, the disk has been running for 6967 hours. During this time, there were no failures. Noise-wise, there is none. In any case, you can't hear it behind the noise of the processor cooler and the power supply of the disk. The average temperature is 32 plus or minus 3 degrees. The maximum was 41 when the PSU cooler was not working, but this is an emergency situation. There are no bad sectors. In general, I can recommend this disc, since I did not have any problems with it.…

Pros
  • quiet cold good speed
Cons
  • not detected

Practical product, nothing to complain about.

As I said above, it has been working for me for the 3rd month without any complaints, an excellent hard drive, I solve the noise problem simply by raising the frequency of the fans (the sound from the air is better for me than the one from torsion of the plate), otherwise an excellent drive from an excellent manufacturer with good speed. The decision to buy or not is up to you! I would pay attention to the Black series.

Pros
  • I checked the model in advance, so everything I will write will be about this model. I think it's worth starting that this is a single-platter hard drive and yes, it is fast enough (and they say that the search is faster), although you can't tell by its size. The tests were carried out several times 5-6 and at different times, in general, within 2 months. It has been in use for 3 months. Read - 153.0 - 153.5, Write 134 - 145 (Standard settings in Crystail Disk Mark 5.1.2). Many scold for the high response time, but I do not feel discomfort, it's still a hard drive and not an SSD. By the way, I hung the disk in front of the case in front of the fan, which is blown in and the temperature does not exceed 29C.
Cons
  • The downsides would be noise and vibration. When I bought, I knew what I was getting into and, even before buying, I figured out how to hang it in the case, but it didn’t work out with one vibration, there is still an unusual rumble from the work itself, it’s not at all loud, but at night you can hear this, I don’t know this is a problem all hard drives or just a specific one, but still worth knowing

The product is terrible, much below my expectations.

I stood together with a 7-year-old Seagate 250 GB, during a power surge (it costs a cheap power supply), both stopped working, however, protection worked in Seagate and after a 1000-ruble repair, the old man continues to work with all the accumulated information, which cannot be said about this WD model , although the difference in production date implies that the later model must be superior in every way. Extremely disappointed.

Pros
  • All advantages are crossed out by its disadvantage
Cons
  • Died

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

I'm editing my review a year after purchase. The price / quality seems to be at a decent level, but after a year the disk began to slow down + it was very fragmented by one program, namely nVidia ShadowPlay, which led to even slightly slower operation and it began to murmur like my old disk and power supply. By the way, the removal of shadow play did not help and defragment to zero, as it was before, now it does not work.

Pros
  • temperature (30 degrees stable when loading something), read / write speed
Cons
  • Such a light marriage arrived. About 280 like overwritten sectors I’m not sure about durability, it seems that the poor one is dying (see comment)

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

Bought for a while as a system. I was lucky with the copy - no noises and vibrations, no extraneous sounds at all, in this regard, the order. Excellent performance both linear and random, for a hard drive of course. Naturally, in terms of random read / write operations of small blocks, there is no comparison with SSD. Made in Thailand. Currently, the disk has already worked for 21 thousand hours - everything is in order, the smart is clean, no problems are observed.

Pros
  • Very fast Silent Cold Reliable
Cons
  • Didn't find

My money is wasted, the product is terrible.

Zero quality. Many thanks to WD that they do not make repairs, but only change if they are lucky for another one. Data recovery from the official-two prices of this hard. In general, hard not for a long time, you can not store information on it. In general, it's all funny I have heels that are hard, somehow, but working - which are 10-15 years old and who are pohat almost around the clock! And then 1.5 years and a corpse .

Cons
  • 1.5 years of work and it stopped running. The computer rarely turns on, that is, the real period of use for any gaming PC is a maximum of half a year.

As such, there are no disadvantages, it is convenient to use.

In general, I took my first Blu more than three years ago while alive and well. The second one is alive and well more than a year ago. HDD has only one drawback is speed. only here for the price quite normal HDD. took and will take. Recommended to buy and will recommend. for budget assemblies, that's it. Well, the noise that they say now it's not Blu, but green has long been raised for more than a year. Marriage is like everyone else. here, how lucky. I took WD Gold for 2tr so it did not start…

Pros
  • Quiet cold
Cons
  • speed is low.

Full compliance with the manufacturers assurances, high quality.

Already, if I'm not mistaken, it has been working for two years - no problems. I decided to take the second one now, otherwise the 10-year-old Seagate began to have problems.

Good product for me, no problems at all.

Overall, I'm happy with the disc. I chose for a long time, I was very afraid of marriage, but everything worked out. Was purchased in September 2022. At the moment, the disk works perfectly, like new. Fortunately, S. M.A. R.T. clean, no unstable or bad sectors. At the time of writing the review worked 8439 hours. There was a small incident with power, I didn’t fully insert the power cord into the power supply, dangling it sparklingly created unstable power, errors appeared in the S. M.A. R.T…

Pros
  • 1. Does not make noise, does not rattle, does not creak (unlike my old Samsung drive); 2. Decent write / read speed for a hard drive; 3. Reliability (maybe I was just lucky); 4. There are no problems with temperature, if the case is blown through, it will be generally fine.
Cons
  • Perhaps a nitpick, but . screws are not supplied in the kit, if you don’t have your own, it will be a problem to fasten.

The best I ever used, recommend it to everybody.

Quiet, fast. It is the second in the computer, Windows on the SSD. Blue WDs are notorious for their short life. I put them in the computer and was surprised by the speed and lack of noise (when accessing the disk). When choosing a disk, in my opinion, you should not forget about the power supply (preferably with a stabilizer), do not skimp on the block. Hard drives of this configuration negatively tolerate power failures and begin to crumble mainly because of this (bad sectors). Marriage is not

Pros
  • I think that the best option of all the blue WD, the price suit(?)
Cons
  • So far, no obvious deficiencies have been found.

My impression of the purchase is good, buy it.

drove in SMARTe everything is excellent, everything is stable, quiet, temperature 31-35. pretty light. read and write speed is acceptable, I chose between this drive and a drive from the Black series, read various comparative tests, there is no tangible difference in performance, the difference is only in reliability due to the use of new solutions in Black, but the price is immediately one and a half times higher. I'd rather buy two disks of the blue series and make a partition on the second…

Pros
  • reasonable price for 1 TB with 64 caches and 7200 rpm
Cons
  • packaging, or rather its absence, instead of a box, blister, or at least a bubble bag, an ordinary antistatic bag. which makes the hard drive vulnerable to storage and transportation.

The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

WD Caviar Blue WD10EZEX 1 TB, popularly just EZEX - "Workhorse" of many computers on the Seven. This is perhaps the most popular model of hards, about which a huge number of reviews have been written, but, nevertheless, it should be mentioned. To begin with, this VD box is perfect for almost everything that the average user needs: both for the system and for file storage, and for games. I'm not sure about working as a system disk with the modern Ten, but with previous versions of Windows (XP…

Pros
  • The price / quality ratio is optimal, good speed, suitable as a system drive for Windows, quickly spins up after hibernation. It is easy to find on sale in almost any computer store.
Cons
  • A bit noisy under load, but quieter than the Japs; price increased slightly (May 2022); I would like a longer service life.

Perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Usually, when there are or have been problems, there is something to tell. Here, there is nothing to even write. For over 10 years it just works and never fails. I don't remember when I bought it. I will give smart for March and September 2022. The mechanics are in order, there are no strange noises. It outlived two Seagates, one Hitachi and one Toshiba. Take boldly. BUT it is the EZEX version. There is also EZRZ - I do not advise taking it (they have a technological flaw).

Pros
  • Reliability Volume accuracy Trouble-free operation for years
Cons
  • Not detected

Do not hesitate to buy, the quality is amazing for the price.

Never paid attention to WD. The guys from the PC repair department at our enterprise advised. Thus told that it is possible to take any disk from WD. Acquired disk is not just pleased, but very pleased. It is clear that it takes time to check the disk. The disk does not heat up. The radiator on the lid, which is actively blown by a large Hitachi Ultrastar cooler, has a temperature of 27°C. Western Digital Blue without cooling, though in an upright position - 28 ° C. Doesn't make noise. The…

Pros
  • Quiet. Cold. Fast . real reading speed (and not in parrots) 180-190 mb / s
Cons
  • No

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

The first copy was bought in the summer of 2022, the second in the fall of 2022. I took both with a difference of ~ 500 compared to the same Blue 1 TB 5400 rpm and 32 MB of cache, which cost 500-750 more. The recording speed is quite a bit different from those declared by the manufacturer, they work 24/7. Used exclusively for gaming. We survived transportation in the system unit on the plane and on the train several times, while there is shaking in the last cars on the train. We experienced…

Pros
  • Time-tested, two such HDDs were bought with a difference of 1.5 years. Ideal value for money. The presence of 64 MB of cache.
Cons
  • A bit noisy, see explanation in the comments.

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

My 3-year-old green WD-ashka wheezed and slowed down. I climbed all over, I understood everything in the hands of God. I chose between Hitachi, Sagate and WD. there is no vibration. The speed of writing, reading is about 180 (for some reason they write 150 everywhere) and this is on my sata 2. Victoria showed 4 sectors of 200 ms. Windows 8.1 with all settings installed in 30 minutes without problems. There will be changes for the worse, I will add comments .

Pros
  • Cheap and angry
Cons
  • Not

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

Installed as a system board for ASUS P5B 2022. I use no more than 1 week. During the first installation from a Win XPx64 flash, the install requested some kind of driver. I did not have it. Began to install Win7x64 too from a flash. The result is the same: asks the driver. I downloaded the Intel_Chipset_V9111019_XPVistaWin7 for ASUS P5B driver kit from the Internet and put the folder with this driver next to the Win7x64 install on the same flash drive. As a result, the installation went…

Pros
  • It works quietly, vibrations against the background of fan noise are not noticeable at all, it practically does not heat up, there is no HF noise. Great product.
Cons
  • did not notice.

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I definitely recommend buying, I didn't notice any disadvantages.

This WD turned out to be reliable, I still took 2022 in the system unit as the main one, of course, you don’t really feel the speed of 7200 rpm, somehow it doesn’t live up to it, it doesn’t load windows as quickly as you would like. On the other hand, the price tag for it has not grown much since my purchase, it does not make noise, it is not hot, a few minor troubles over four years is an excellent indicator. Who wants a long-playing and budget disc, I advise.

Pros
  • quiet, inexpensive, reliable.
Cons
  • speed

The product is of poor quality, I do not advise.

Was purchased to store files for a home PC. After 2 months of use (562 hours, 120 inclusions), when copying files to it, the speed dropped sharply. When the disk was full of 120 GB, we managed to copy most of the data. At the same time, the disk allowed data to be copied in small portions (3-5 GB each), after which the OS stopped seeing it. Upon reboot, the disk became visible again. Attempts to get S. M.A. R.T. drive caused the drive to become unplugged. After copying the data from it, we…

Pros
  • Seems to be quiet
Cons
  • Broke after 2 months of use. Warming up.
