Must have been a dud ...
I have had good luck with Western Digital hard drives in the past. This one failed after about 50-100 hours of use. Unfortunately it was part of a kit, and I tossed the box it came in, so I may be up a creek as far as a replacement goes. Really disappointing.

I have used Western Digital 500 Gig Drive as my main desktop drive for several years and never have been disappointed. One you can count on.
