I own 2 of these. They get hot. One died. I replaced it with a caviar green. Strangely enough, the HDD are refurbished WD Caviar Blacks 7200rpm 64mb which is why they have only 1 yr replacement. Mine may have been different so do your research on whats in these things.

I bought this same HDD about a year ago and a few months ago it died. Most of the reviews seem positive but I haven't had the best luck with Western Digital as both my external and internal WD's have died.

Have this for a couple years and it's been solid as well. I only wish it were vertically oriented for a smaller footprint.

I have used this model for about 2 years. It has been solid, and it has been problem free. The internal drive is just a WD Green series drive. I'm sure when I replace this USB 2.0 model with a USB 3.0 one, I will just throw this hard drive in my media server.

An important thing to keep in mind is that this is a USB 2.0 drive, so if you plan on accessing large files often, I would avoid this and opt for a USB 3.0 drive (if your computer can support it). If you are simply looking for a way to keep your computer backed up however, I see no point in using USB 3.0 over USB 2.0.

Another point I'd like to make is about the WD and well.. Most of the hard drive companies backup tools. They are all garbage. The WD backup tool does not offer enough flexibility, and seems to be pretty buggy. I recommend to anyone who chooses to use this drive as a backup to use Cobian Backup. It is one of the best backup tools I have ever used.

I agree with the first post, I've also been using this drive for the past 1.5 years without problems. Unfortunately, I also paid the same price. Hopefully supplies will get back to normal soon so I can swap everything with a 3 TB.

I've been using one of these drives for the last 2 years as a backup. It's been solid, no issues.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
