    Comments about Western Digital� Caviar� Black� 1TB SATA Desktop Hard Drive:

    I went with Western Digital because it got good reviews and because I'd seen some negative comments about some Seagate drives.

    I didn't notice ahead of time that it didn't include a cable. For the price I paid for it, you'd think that WD could have included a $2-3 cable in the package. Staples doesn't sell SATA cables so I had to find a computer store to buy it from.

    They also don't give you a disc with WD's hard drive utilities, you have to download it from their website. You can no longer download JUST the Data Lifeguard Tools, it's now part of a much larger package which includes a stripped down version of Acronis True Image backup software, which only works with Western Digital Drives.

    The download is 155MB, which isn't an issue for me, but I don't really like the idea of having to install 155MB of data for a program I'm not going to use. Since it will only work with WD brand drives, any backup you make with it can only be restored to a WD brand drive. So if I ever decide to get a different brand of hard drive, I can't restore my backup to it. No thanks!

    I ended up installing the version of Data Lifeguard Tools that came with my older IDE Caviar drive. It worked fine with this one and didn't come with a ton of extra junk.

    If you're like me and don't want to download a bloated, crippled backup program just to get WD's partitioning and formatting software, go to Softpedia and download Data Lifeguard Tools 11.2. It's only 3.5MB and works perfectly.

      Bought 2 units. Tested both with an external case before upgrading my desktop to Windows 7 x64. No issues related to the drives. Only time will tell how reliable they'll be.

          Before retiring, I was an IT pro for over 20 years. I had many bad experiences with drive installation in that time. But now, with improved hardware and improved software this was a snap to install.

            Replaced Caviar Green with Caviar Black in 24" iMac. Faster, but head seek is much more apparent in a silent office.

            Replacement in iMac for WD Caviar Green 320GB original. Considerably louder on read-write, still not objectionable in near-silent office.
