Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a reliable and affordable hard drive. 1 TB was perfect as a replacement for upgrading the operating system on my desktop computer.

Most Desktops are made with a very small C drive and large D Drive, which is great if you are not going to run a huge amount of programs. I do though and found that upgrading my desktop (C) to a 1TB worked wonders.

I honestly don't know a thing about Hard Drives, but we bought this one to use with a surveillance system. It has been recording 24/7 for 3 months and it's still not full. It's doing what we bought it to do. I would recommend this to anyone.

good product great price super good discounts WD Mainstream internal Serial ATA hard drive is designed for use with desktops and features data transfer rates up to 6 Gbps for fast performance. The 1TB capacity offers ample space for storing music, movies and more

Western Digital is my favorite hard drive manufacturer. I usually have good luck with it. I have a lot of computers and most of them use the Western Digital hard drives.

really dependable and easy to install and use i brought 2 of them so far no issues

Bought to replace a failed drive in my daughter's computer. Nothing flashy, but all three booted into RAID 5 config without any issue, and installed Windows without a hitch.

Installation was easy in my Dell Inspirion 660. I used my restore discs and the whole operation went smooth. For whatever reason, my computer is operating much faster now, but it may be just because things are cleaned up now.

Good performance and capacity. I am running it as the primary boot disk with Linux Mint 18 and grub boot selector. Also still running windows XP on a separate disk. I need both Linux & XP on this machine. I have win 7 on another box.

Western Digital makes the most reliable standard drives that I have used. I always use and recommend these drives when price and reliability are important. I have gotten more than 6 years of life from these drives.

If you are getting an older HD, make sure it’s 7200rpm. The 5400 are not as fast. Obviously a SSD is better these days but these make great backup drives. I always have trusted Seagate and Wester Digitial for HD’s.

I purchased two of these drives for my small office server. I know they are not necessarily server drives, but I needed to watch the budget. So far they are working great and they are very quiet.

reasonable price, easy to install and serves it's purpose

The hard drive that came with my desk top computer stopped working so I decided to buy this 1TB hard drive to replace the other and it works perfect. It gives me a good amount of space and it runs fast and its not that expensive.

WD quality as expected good access speeds for a HDD and 64MB cache make it a good performing drive. Newvr had issues with WD drives in years of using/installing them cannot say the same for other manufacturers that I have dealt with.

I was told by a knowledgeable friend that problems I was having with my computer could be my hard drive getting ready to go out. He recommended this product which I got installed and it has made a difference in my computer.

A great drive for the price and I have noticed it is a very quiet drive as well.

Although it's not a caviar black, it serves it's pupose. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a midrange hard drive. Easy to set up. Acronis software is a plus(it's not a complete package, however. It's just the basic but enough for common needs).

Can't say too much about this internal SATA hard drive other than I hope it doesn't fail prematurely. Western Digital drives apparently have a decent reliability rating. Needed a replacement internal hard drive for a desktop computer right away, and by purchasing it at store, I over paid because a cheaper online purchase would have taken a few extra days, which I didn't have.

Bought this drive to replace the one in our security DVR. The old drive had died and this one is so much faster. We will see how well it holds up to the rigors of being in a security system.
