Flawlessly reliable. Fast. Perfect size for storing data. Never a problem. Data is too valuable to lose. I can't risk it any more by trying other hard drives. I keep coming back to Caviar Black for peace of mind. Maxtor is junk. Seagate has never made it past its warranty for me. Seagate has always caused me some sort of data recovery emergency and expense! I have never, ever had any problem with Caviar Black. For me Caviar Black is reliable beyond measure.
This is best we hard drive so fast performance.A+++++++++++ My dell xps 410 recognize this hard drive quickly and no problem at all even though dell operator told me that xps 410 has max readable hard drive size is 500 gb. Fast and stable I love this hard drive. It is si quite too.
this drive is this close to Touchless as you can get. The way the caviar black runs on the platter it's nearly touchless in these hard drives will Outlast any other hard drive typically 4 to 1. I use these in my Macintosh and my Windows computer for music recording and editing. When it comes to a drive that you need to remove files from and put new ones on every day and if you can't afford solid-state with that much space this drive is the way to go. I have one caviar black that has been in service for over 10 years and I pull data off and put new data on daily and still it's fine while other hard drives that come in the computers fail with less Demand on them. So I personally think this is probably the coolest, best hard drive on the market for the money!

I have two of these. Fast enough to eliminate need or benfnit for Raptors or other over priced mechanical drives. They do work well for consumer RAID 1 or 0. Due to the recent shortage they have become more expensive than they should be but they are still a good value for the performance offered.
I really can't say if I'm satisfied, because the disk was DOA, and now I'm in the process of straightening it out. I had heard decent reports about it- it could just be that the seller lacks quality control or, on the other hand, maybe they tried to sell a non-working disk... When G"W I'll get a replacement I'll write a report...
