    Duration of ownership:3 Days

    Strengths: This drive is worth the money. I've always used WD and I am always happy with my purchase.

    Weaknesses: Can't find a single one. It's a hard drive, what else do you want.

    Overall Evaluation: I recommend ordering from a retailer you trust and has a good warranty and return policy. And for those who are saying that they are losing HD space, try turning off system restore for that drive . But only if it is a secondary drive. Although I recommend leaving it on because you may need it one day.

    Duration of ownership:1 Days

    Strengths: Lots of space, nice price.

    Weaknesses: Only 465 GB useable. That's 35 off. A lot of missing space if you ask me.

    Overall Evaluation: So far so good. A nice addition to my 200 GB (80+60+80 external) It's my first time ordering a Western Digital drive and I have no complaints. Would definitely buy again if possible.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: 500GB, SATA2, PRICE, SPEED, WD NAME, OEM w/ 3 Yrs Warranty (Retail = 1yr)

    Weaknesses: Some say it gets a little hot

    Overall Evaluation: I love Western Digital Hard Drives. I would never buy any other brand. I have never had a WD hard drive fail on me. I currently own a 36GB Raptor, this 500GB (replacing a 120GB WD drive), and an external 250GB. If you want smooth, reliable and fast drives go with WD!
