5.0 out of 5 stars Go Green!!, July 25, 2009
This review is from: WD Caviar Green WD7500AACS - Hard drive - 750 GB - internal - 3.5" - SATA-300 - 7200 rpm - buffer: 16 MB (pack of 20 ) (Electronics)
I have this drive and WD's next generation of the same drive, WD7500AADS, the one with 32 MB of Cache.
I used these two drives in my HP Media Vault 2120 and love it. I didn't choose to do a RAID, so I have a combined 1.3 TB of storage in the Media Vault.

One thing to note, the drives work great but data transfer does not seem to be quite as fast as the Blue Caviar or my Seagate Baracudas. What I mean by that is when I transfer lots of files from one drive to the other, I think the transfer rates are slower sing Windows Explorer. Of course I know Explorer has a lot of overhead that may slow down transfer rates but the Seagate Baracdas seem to large amounts of data (like 200 GB or so) much more quickly.

I like the idea of power savings however, since the NAS is always running. These drives are ridiculously cool to the touch. They are much cooler to the touch when in use versus other HDDs. For a little sacrifice in performance, I get drives that are much cooler and uses less energy.

If you need all out speed, these are the wrong drives for you. If you need alot of storage and use these either as a backup or in a NAS, these drives are perfect. Go get a WD Black or WD Raptor if you need speed to run your games and get one of these drives to store all your music and photos.

4.0 out of 5 stars So far so good!, June 16, 2009
A nice hard drive. Its a "green" hard drive so it uses less power. Runs quiet and works just fine!

btw, its only 700gb not 750.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quite and cool drive on the cheap, May 15, 2009

This review is from: WD Caviar Green WD7500AACS - Hard drive - 750 GB - internal - 3.5" - SATA-300 - 7200 rpm - buffer: 16 MB (pack of 20 ) (Electronics)
The drive installed perfectly. It runs quite and cool in my freenas (freeNAS.org) box. As with all hard drives, it comes down to longevity and that is not something that I can review 3 weeks after purchase. If you are going to mirror the data than that is less important.

It is the green drive. So don't expect it to be as fast as a 7200rpm drive. It has 3 250GB platters, about half the density of the new 2TB green drive (4 500GB platters). Read more
