The sad thing I got the wrong drive, I did get sata, but I know western is a great brand.
The price is the best feature in this product I have this HD since a month and I've had not problem yet, 320 G is a good amount of bytes for storing
But in my view, shipping out a product such as this without including what's needed to install it is not simply short-sighted, it's unforgivably stupid. Meanwhile, my computer is sitting on its side on the kitchen table with parts hanging.Somebody at Western Digital probably got a promotion on the strength of saving the company $1 on every unit sold. After chasing around and wasting time I ordered one online.
Mistake. Wrong. All the good reviews convinced me to buy this particular hard drive.
Office Depot, Staples, Radio Shack, and Best Buys don't sell it. Fool me once, Western Digital, but you won't catch me again.Western Digital WD3200KSRTL Caviar 320 GB SATA 3.5-Inch Hard Drive It comes with an SATA data cable but warns you - in the installation booklet - that no SATA power cable is supplied.
Must be a simple item to buy locally, I thought.
It works, I'm happy. No drive is 100%, I have two of these running on my newly build tower, its been running for 1 year now, basically they back each other up in case one fails.
I know this won't help much, sorry. I bought this unit to replace a deceased one in my daughter's computer so I don't personally use it. it seems fine so far (about a month as of this review).
