4.0 out of 5 stars This is a great drive!, February 17, 2005
But, as has already been mentioned, you may be surprised to find that it is only a drive. No instructions, or installation material at all. I suggest you hop over to www.wdc.com and get a copy of the disk setup program, which conveniently fits on a 1.44MB diskette. It comes with its own DOS so it will boot up, and you can partition and format your new drive, if your computer's BIOS can't recognize the drive as an 80GB.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad quality and bad service, August 17, 2006
I bought this drive a little over one year ago and with 2 years warranty. Around 8 months period, the system cannot boot from the drive and the test software provided by WD also proved it's dead. So I mailed it back for a replacement, and (surprisingly) I got back a re-certified one with only 3 months warranty. Literally, my warranty plan was cut to 1 year. I didn't bother to call them to get a new replacement. Unfortunately, another 2 months after the warranty expires (from the re-cerified one), the disk went dead again.

I would not recommend this model to anyone, since within 1 year, 2 went bad. Also, I don't like the way they handle the replacement within warranty period.
