Great drives! Western Digital drives are a great product!
I am using this product in my home server. I currently have a Western Digital 150 GB VelociRaptor for the system drive. for my storage pool i started with 6 1 TB Caviar Blacks. I now added 2 of the Caviar Green 2 TB with 64MB. All the Western digital drives are very quiet running and have great transfer rates. The greens seem to run very similar to the blacks. I wish i would have just bought the 2 TB green drives from the beginning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Win7-Partitioned & Working Well Via Firewire Enclosure With WinXP
Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2011
Size: 2 TBVerified Purchase
Just got this Western Digital 2 TB WD20EARS Green Drive and it appears to be working fine and running cool inside a MacAlly G-S350SUA 3.5" SATA USB/Firewire case via Firewire connection to a Gateway FX530XM desktop PC running Windows XP Pro with SP3. I avoided the alignment issues with this "Advanced Format" hard drive running under WinXP that would normally require either installing a jumper on drive pins 7-8 or running the WD alignment software if formatted under WinXP, by first connecting the drive in this enclosure via USB to a netbook running Win7 and using the Win7 disk management utility to create a single partition that I plan to use for photo storage and system backups. I selected the "MBR" type for the new partition to allow Win7 to make sectors already aligned and compatible with WinXP and formatted NTFS. I also ran the long disk scan for bad sectors to verify disk integrity, which took about four hours I think. All went fine with no errors, then the enclosure and drive were moved to the WinXP machine and connected via an available firewire port. The formatted drive capacity is reported as 1.81 TB, as expected.

The WinXP Backup utility has now been running continuously for about four hours so far to create a backup copy of my primary C: drive (at a rate of about 30GB/hr), and the aluminum case of the MacAlly drive enclosure is only slightly warm to the touch. Note: This backup finished later without any problem and likewise for a folder of 20GB of files copied in about 40 minutes. The relatively cool temp was expected, as this variable speed green drive has a maximum startup power consumption of well under the case's 2amp rated power supply, and well under 1 amp while running, so it generates very little heat. My PC is 4 y/o, and I'm not that concerned about transfer rates or access time for my purposes, so I didn't really need the other MacAlly drive enclosure with the faster firewire port or a faster hard drive.

So far, I am happy with this hard drive, and I'm glad I found David Siegfried's Option 3 suggestion posted on 9-1-11 to simply partition & format this drive using Win7 or Vista to avoid having to use a jumper or run special aligment software for WinXP compatibility. This is the best solution for WinXP users in my opinion, and is easy when you are using an external drive case, as I did. I wanted to avoid the jumper solution, in case I also wanted to run it under Win7 later, because I read that removing the jumper deletes the data. I read that it's not the formatting that creates a problem under WinXP but the creation of the partition. I didn't even need any additional drive cable for this MacAlly case, since the drive plugs directly into the case's connectors on its circuit board, or to run any other software in WinXP. Nor did I need to change any BIOS setting. The drive runs very quietly, and seems to be quite responsive. Great price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, Green, & Inexpensive networked set up
Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2011
Size: 2 TBVerified Purchase
I bought 2 of these WD Drives to daisy chain to my Apple Airport Extreme via it's USB port to function as Network Attached Storage (hard drive sharing over the network). This allows all my home computers (4) to share files and backup via TimeMachine to the common disks which now total 6 TB (2 x 1 TB WD Caviar Green + 2 x 2 TB WD Caviar Green drives). While my setup looks like a rat's nest and is a kludgy design, I doubt there are any other ways to save as much money and electricity and deliver 6 TB of networked storage as this set up does.

I use Newer Technology's USB Universal Drive Adapters (UDA) to connect the WD Caviar Green drives to a USB hub (actually a "OWC Mercury Elite-AL Pro Dual" that holds two of the 1 TB drives & has a powered USB Hub). The 2 TB drives sit in a napkin holder (yes, kludgy & cheap!) and are connected to the USB hub & the Airport Extreme. The plastic napkin rack hold the 2 drives upright, reducing space required and which allows air circulation, not that they need it as they barely get warm during use.

Green wise, I doubt there are lower electricity consuming set ups. Using a "Kill-A-Watt" meter, each drive with its controller (Newer Tech's UDAs) only draws 4 watts while idle! When they sleep they draw about 2 -3 watts, which is probably for the UDA's nice bright LED christmas-type lights! I have not tested the drives' electricity consumption under heavy load (what's "Heavy Load" in a home?!), but The most I ever saw drawn was ~14 watts! As for noise, I thought my first 1 TB WD Caviar Green was broken as I did not hear a thing when I first set it up to format it. The 2 TB drives are also morgue quiet.

Formatting is simple for a Mac (don't know about others), as you just connect the UDAs to the drives & then plug them into your USB port. Using Apple's "Disk Utility" app in your "Utilities" folder in your Application's folder, you choose "Erase Drive" & I then chose the default "Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Type a name for the hard drive and in less than a minute, the drive is ready to go. Reconnect the UDA & drive to your Airport Extreme, and you've got 2 TB of networked storage available to all your computers on the network while using a tiny amount of electricity!

As for speed, I have done no speed tests, but copies to the drive ("writes" in proper parlance) over my wired, Fast Ethernet (100 Gbs) network the go at about the rate the Ethernet allows (~8 MB/s or 64 Mb/s, with the theoretical maximum speed of 100 Mb/s). Thus, the drives when on the network are likely limited by network speeds not the drives' speed. My WiFi network (802.11n) is even slower, thus making WD's Caviar Green drives perfectly suited for networked application. The worst thing about this set up is the couple second delay for the drive to first mount itself as it wakes from its sleep.

Western Digital's Caviar Green 2 TB drives will not only will you save electricity with this set up, you will save money on creating the networked storage I described, as each Newer Technology's UDA costs less than $30 and WD's Caviar Green drives are less than $45 / GB, which is an excellent value!

Ottimo hdd, silenzioso, molto capiente, affidabile. L'ho preso per fare backup di documenti, programmi, file multimediali, ecc... e in ormai diversi anni di utilizzo non ha mai fatto una piega.
Rimane sempre tra i più consigliati, ora anche nei tagli maggiori.
Se si vuole affidabilità garantita 24h su 24, per un utilizzo intensivo, si può valutare la serie Red della stessa marca, più indicata per questo scopo.

5.0 out of 5 stars La meilleure marque pour les meilleurs disques durs
Reviewed in France on December 9, 2012

C'est le disque dur à avoir pour le stockage de données! Silencieux, économique/écologique, grand espace de stockage, longévité impressionnante... J'en ai 5 comme ça dans mon serveur et ils tournent non stop depuis des années sans aucun problème! J'ai testé des dizaines de disques durs et, maintenant que les 2 seules marques restantes sont Western Digital et Seagate, je peux vous dire que les plus solides et les plus fiables sont bien les Western Digital!
Ces disques sont increvables.
Attention : j'ai bien précisé que c'est pour le stockage de données... Le temps d'accès au disque et la mise en veille risque d'agacer ceuxx qui voudraient l'utiliser pour les jeux vidéo. Ils conviennent pour le multimédia en tout cas!

and i can report that the drive is till going strong. I have found these drives to be very reliable on the whole. Before this I had two Seagate ST31000524AS 3.5 inch Barracuda drives. Both failed in just outside of a year. Thankfully I had a SMART utility running in the background that forewarned me before they failed so I was able to back up my vital info. I had alway thought Seagate drives were excellent quality, but this has changed my opinion.

This western digital drive has been super reliable and good value for money.

Reviewed in Italy on May 11, 2011
Size: 1.5 TBVerified Purchase
La mia recensione vuole sopratutto soffermarsi sul servizio che amazon offre invece che sul prodotto in questione.
Il prodotto è un ottimo HD, veloce e silenzioso, basta leggere le specifiche per capire che è un prodotto ottimo con un rapporto qualità-prezzo che lo rende quasi unico nella sua categoria!!
Inizialmente il prodotto che è arrivato non funzionava (è una cosa normale che può capitare a prescindere dal rivenditore), pensavo che avrei avuto grossi problemi invece ho seguito una procedura on-line per la sostituzione del prodotto velocissima e semplicissima.
Questa procedura mi ha permesso di inviare il prodotto non funzionante e ricevere nel giro di 24h il prodotto nuovo e funzionante senza nessuna email o chiamata. Appena amazon riceverà il prodotto non funzionante,dopo vari controlli, mi accrediterà le spese di spedizione che ho dovuto sostenere personalmente.
Dato che era la prima volta che eseguivo un'operazione del genere on-line mi sono rivolto al servizio clienti telefonico amazon e sono stati gentilissimi, disponibili e molto chiari.

Insomma concludendo sono rimasto molto soddisfatto, ottimo prodotto e ottimo servizio amazon.
