💾 WD WD3200KSRTL Caviar 320 GB SATA 3.5-Inch Hard Drive: High-performance storage solution Review

These are excellent hard drives. I'm a big Western Digital fan, so I'm biased. But for the price - this turntable is definitely a must have for the poor college student who just needs a few extra gigs for music/pictures. I installed this in my new Dell Inspiron 530 computer (which also has a WD 320GB Caviar drive as the C drive). I upgraded from an old 5400rpm IDE drive so all I can say is these things are insanely fast compared to my old computer. Yes, this drive isn't the quietest modern…

I don't want to tell you how much time I've wasted assuming that WD couldn't be right when it said it was easy to migrate old Windows to this new drive. My disk came with a Western Digital Data Lifeguard Tools CD. I just knew it couldn't be that easy, so I went online and brewed a witch's potion on the steps to clone my old Maxtor. It didn't work so I changed the recipe and tried several times. So if all else fails, read the instructions. I ended up doing it a few times, it sounded so easy I…

When my 250GB hard drive failed I bought this hard drive based on online reviews which convinced me that WD is the hard drive manufacturer worth buying . 7200 rpm is fine for my purposes and the replacement disc was also 7200 rpm. Installation was easy. The hard part was transferring the files (sorting after 5 years of accumulation). Given the price paid I would suggest buying 2 and setting them up in a RAID configuration unless I was retired and just an occasional user. And if I were a…

I now have just over 2TB of free hard drive space on my PC, which only increased after I bought a Sony camcorder with a hard drive and started editing and making movies . I bought this drive primarily as a backup for photos, music and raw video files that need storage space until I edit/delete them. Installation is very easy and can be completed in 5-10 minutes. This drive is very quiet, almost silent, even when running at full speed (recording a 40-60GB video file, etc.). I like to keep…

Just got around to reviewing these wheels which I bought about two years ago. These are removable hard drives and now they're probably too small for most computers, but they're big enough for what I use them for. I also have a Western Digital 2T MyBook USB drive that contains large files and backups. These Western Digital products work perfectly. I have a two drive RAID configuration, but the only time the drive has "failed" was twice when there was a power outage and once when I had a Windows…
