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.

Bad Blocks Galore

I've never been so disappointed by a hard drive as this one. I have been plagued by an incredible number of bad blocks on this drive. It takes my system HOURS to run through, trying to map out the bad blocks. Maybe their others worked fine, but the one I got was horrid.

Dead after 1 month

My Se agate died after 3 years, so i bought a WD caviar green and it also died (1 month of usage lol). Now who's a better company hmm ? I think both are equal.

Don't waste your money

This is only 5400rpm HD. Sure you get 1TB but it is slow. Spend the extra money get the Seagate ST32000641AS 7400rpm. It is Sata 6 ready and fully compatible with sata 3.

Arrived as advertised

Quick delivery and smooth setup. Very quiet. I installed this drive in an ULTRA hard drive enclosure and could not be happier. SG let me down and WD picked me right back up again. The only negative thing I have to say about this drive is that the plastic clamshell packaging sux bigtime! I hate it no matter what is packed in it and wish it was outlawed. A simple cardboard box with crumpled newspaper would be much cheaper and preferable. Just my humble opinion. BUT the drive and the Ultra enclosure have me tickled darn pink. I hope the price drops soon as I want 6 more of these!

Surprisingly

I had this HDD for less than a year and it just bombed out on me. I was using the drive to back-up both my desktop at home and my business laptop, so very limited use, i.e. twice a week. I have 2 WD 500GB drives that are just purring and have no problems with. WD builds great drives. I am disapointed by this 2T drive but I will get over it.
