CustomerReviews
Won’t clone
Usually WD drives are good. Gave this drive as a gift to my sister to increase her laptop space. Can’t clone another drive onto this one. So this is a door stopper. Need to return to WD.
Quiet, Fast and Reliable
I bought this drive to put in an external enclosure several months ago and it’s working like a champ. It’s quiet, fast and reliable. What more can you ask of a hard drive.
EZ Upgrade
I got an iPod for father’s day and was already pushing the limit of my 54GB hard drive. Bought the 120GB PATA since Dell said 120 was the biggest I could use. Got an Apricorn EZ Upgrade Kit which will work for PATA or SATA. I downloaded the clone software from Western Digital since I read a good review of it. I assume the Apricorn would have been OK too. I was up and running in less than an hour. The only scare I had was pulling out the old drive and not seeing the pins on back like the new drive had. After a few seconds I realized that the old drive had an addapter on it that just pulled off and pushed on to the new drive.
Amazon does it again!
I have always had great service from Western Digital drives. This one is the same. It was easy to find on Amazon and the price was the cheapest, by far. Delivery was quick even though I used standard free shipping!!
160 GB Hard Drive
This was a gift, I installed in my daughter’s computer. She is happy with the added capacity & it has been performing flawlessly.
