Best thing I have ever used, highly recommended!

dear, take care of your hard ones, we still have to buy and buy them, and they are becoming more expensive due to natural disasters. therefore, experienced advice: put more RAM and keep the system units away from the battery and do not kick the case if your hands are crooked - this is why the sectors are beating. Always format in NTFS. for temporary files) I came across 00A7B2 with two plates, maybe this somehow played positively.

Pros
  • almost silent I have been working for 2 years ! works without errors. The price was good for 2022. I am satisfied.
Cons
  • my Windows 7 is already more than a year old and garbage has apparently accumulated in order and the Windows itself weighs 17GB, therefore it works with delays but tolerably. I think this is due to the fact that there is not enough RAM, 3GB is not enough for 7ki.

I am dissatisfied with the product, there are no positive qualities.

First of all, I would like to draw attention to the low weight of the hdd, 420 grams, hence the many problems - the top cover is thin, while working it makes the sound of a kettle starting to boil. The low weight of the case does not dampen vibrations well. The read speed drops almost linearly from 115Mbps at the beginning of the disk to 55Mbps towards the end of the disk. For comparison, I took a 5-year-old WD 160GB, 90Mbps at the beginning of the disk and 50Mbps at the end. Taking into…

Pros
  • a year later no badblocks
Cons
  • noise, vibration slow expensive

The quality is ok on the whole, it has some small flaws.

I have two of them, I took them in different stores - both are healthy - BUT there is no silence and it doesn’t smell and it can’t (even when reading the technical characteristics) if you don’t hang it on bolts, then the vibration is like when taking off an2. for half a year, no advantages, no shortcomings not added (as a result, one stuck another bate to his brother. In other words, I don’t advise

Pros
  • there are no failures of troubles and other crap so far - this is where the advantages end .
Cons
  • NOISE (depending on what of course to compare .

It has some flaws but the product is usable.

WDC WD5000AAKX-00U6AA0 Bought in January 2022 as a system unit for Windows 7 (released in September 2022). I stood in a 3.5" basket along with the WD5000AAKS, both were fixed with ordinary screws. After 7–8 months, it began to hum, resonate unbearably with the case at a frequency of 120 Hz (7200 RPM) and noticeably make noise when accessing the disk. I had to hang it in 5" compartment on elastic bands from shorts - normal flight. Despite the fact that the WD5000AAKS, which has worked for…

Pros
  • • Price/performance/volume ratio. • Operating temperature without direct blowing <= 33°C.
Cons
  • • Low reliability of some specimens in terms of vibration and noise. • Automatic Acoustic Management is not supported. • Relatively long access time. • Ugly promotional ploy with useless SATA 6 Gb/s.

Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

Information for those who think whether this HDD will work. Successfully picked up and works. This is a really useful tip for iMac users due to the fact that they are capricious in terms of supported hardware and it is very problematic to find a supported hard drive if you don't do it all the time, but "asked". There are no complaints about the disk itself, the two-month experience of using it after purchase shows that there are no problems with it, just as there are no extra noises and other

Pros
  • Successfully replaced a failed built-in hard drive on an iMac 2022 mid MA878LL (A1225)
Cons
  • Little useful tip for PC owners)

Not a bad product, but you can find a better one.

I just bought a hard one, I haven’t tested it yet, but I immediately noticed this drawback. Then I'll write more. I use for multimedia player. HD Tune Pro (NTFS/512 bytes): Minimum speed - 63 MB/s Maximum speed - 124.8 MB/s Average speed - 101.4 Mbps Access time (512 bytes) - 15.6 ms Peak speed - 187.9 MB/s *Processor - i7 950 *Motherboard - ASUS P6TD Deluxe The temperature in the case (not much blown) - 34 degrees

Cons
  • Thin cover creates additional noise. In a docking station, in a low-noise environment, it will be annoying. (if you press the cover with your finger, the noise will disappear =) Vibration is too strong for me.

I bought a Samsung after 40 GB, I was immediately surprised by the silence, I can’t hear it at all, it’s amazing (it says in the comments that it makes noise). Very cold, ran the test with 3 active toys and opera, gave out 40 degrees, in idle time 30-33. It was very tricky the first time it was formatted, I wanted to install Windows 7 professional, the local FORMAT DIDN'T SEE THE DISK, ALTHOUGH THE BIOS SAW IT. WENT TO A FRIEND, STILL DID NOT FORMAT (he didn’t have acronis installed), came…

Pros
  • Quiet cheap cold
Cons
  • formatting issues

Good product, not disappointed.

Purchased in February 2022, issue September 2022. To date, it has worked more than 17,000 thousand hours. It works as a system disk + storage. Under constant airflow all year round with an input 120mm cooler. Two years ago it disappeared from the system, the contacts on the board oxidized. Cleaning with an elastic clerical eraser solved the problem for the next two years. The power supply is real, not super but stable. Based on the experience of 12 years of working with a computer, I learned…

Pros
  • Quiet, it does not vibrate in the case and is not audible. In the hellish heat, the temperature under the blower did not rise above 38 degrees.
Cons
  • Contacts on the board. The noise emitted by the heads when turned off (not critical).

It's impossible to use, don't waste your money.

Were at different times purchased 500 matches blue since 2022-09. Almost all problems. As a rule, they are poorly readable after the expiration of time (in those places where there is intensive writing / reading) - the access time increases sharply to 100-500ms. Those. bads are being prepared. The screw itself is very light (compare with hitachi for example) what is it made of? Suitable - but not for the system - because after a while the system will have to be transferred to another area of…

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • unreliable

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

Many in the comments complain about it. We see how lucky. I re-read a huge number of reviews for different hard drives, people complain about absolutely all models. It doesn't matter where the disc was produced, be it Taiwan, Malaysia or Thailand. Apparently at such a time we now live, before hack work was a rarity. Five years for HDD, this was considered the minimum norm. Now people often do not work out even two years. The further, the worse.

Pros
  • Good disk. Bought in February 2022, has been working for more than 5 years. All indicators are normal.
Cons
  • I would like more speed. Not the fastest screw.
