Very Quiet, but Doesn't Last Long,
This review is from: WesternDigital 40GB EIDE ULTRA/ATA-100 5400 RPM Internal Hard Drive ( WD400EB ) (Personal Computers)
I was initially very pleased with this disk as a cheap way to revive my Pentium III whose disk had failed. This WD disk was so quiet you barely knew it was running. But it lasted only 13 months! It failed without ANY warning. And worst of all is the WAY it failed: it just stopped spinning. So it was impossible to retrieve any of the data. Of course, it made it through the one-year warranty period! Western Digital, thanks so very much for taking away my photos, e-mails, etc.!
