I bought 2 of these drives to back up my digital photos to an external 2 drive bay. So far they are working as expected. The noise is a little higher than my other drives, but not by much. I installed them vertically in the outer compartment. Since my drives are only powered on during backups, I expect them to last a long time. Considering the price I am satisfied with the purchase.
