Title: 20 days and dead
Product review: I installed this hdd in a new build. On the second day of operation I started getting a s.m.a.r.t. warning that the drive was dying. I ran down to Wal-mart and picked up an external drive for backup just in case. Last night just as I finished a multiple page essay for a graduate class it failed completely. Now my system is down, I can't access my back-up material until I get a new drive for the box and I have to rewrite the paper for my class with a 5% grade reduction due to being late. Amazon is being great about sending a replacement hdd, but my opinion of WD is not as good as it was this time yesterday. At least I do have a backup!
