my WD7500AADS Caviar Green again failed quick and extended test. this will be my 4th RMA in 8-9 month.
now i’m thinking about to buy caviar black [WD5001AALS or WD5002AALX ]. can somebody help me choosing the right one.
any help appreciated.
system specification:
Windows XP SP2
Intel P4 3.06 GHz
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L
do you have “clean power” (either incoming clean to the pc via ups and or sure that your psu is good)
i had a problem with a client who killed 2 drives in 6 months b/c he lived in an old house that would “brown out” almost every other day. after replacing the 2nd drive, we got him a ups and havent had a problem in a year…
just a consideration if the drives are all dying in the same machine/location
:womanwink:…caviar black will be ok. i use it till now .
