    Hard Drive Replacement

    Needed to replace an internal drive in a small business server. This drive worked but since the existing drives were older they had a different sector size??? Had to do a bit of work to make it recreate the mirror. Issue was more my lack of knowledge. This drive having the latest sector size made it a good choice for normal use.

    Great Drive for a Cheaper Fix

    I used this drive to replace a failing hard drive. I usually prefer to use WD Caviar Black drives for the higher performance from the larger Cache buffers, but didn't want to put the extra expensive on my client for a general use computer system. I had no issues mirroring the old hard drive onto this one and getting the system running perfectly again. So far no complaints on the system and was a great quick cheaper buy for a quick fix.
