THIS PRODUCT SHIPS IN OEM PACKAGING -
GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.

I have had this HDD for 6 months now as a secondary hdd, an ssd being my primary, Ive used most of it with only 350gb free it has not failed me yet. Very efficient since it lowers rpm at idle.
Perfect Drive!

This is my 5th WD drive in 3 years with no issues. All of them are still running strong, and they are on 24-7. This is the first 1TB Black drive I have purchased. I use this drive for strictly backups, so large amounts of data get written to it at once, usually around 400GB at a time. These drives are top notch! Don't hesitate with these, get one today!!
Great, Solid Hard Drive.

I purchased this one about 8 months ago and works flawlessly. The only con I had was I thought I would actually see an improvement on the customer experience rating in Windows 7 with this hard drive over the Caviar Green series but even after update it is still 5.4 So just go with the caviar green if you not doing anything other than basic storage. You'll save some money. Thats why I set the value to 3.
Good drive for srorage or backups.

I bought this drive about a year ago to use for data storage. So far it's been running without a hitch. To people who's disks have failed: My view may be outdated but I would never trust a disk over 500 gb to be used as a boot drive. Too much chance that something may go wrong and too much will be lost if something does.
