Western Digital Caviar Blue 160 GB,Internal,7200 RPM,3.5" (WD1600AAJB) Hard Drive

This is probably the last of the quickly disappearing PATA IDE variety of hard drive.

This drive runs cool, quiet and top notch for its IDE connection.

The Western Digital Caviar line represent the cream of the crop and comes with a 5-year limited warranty.

Single platter efficiency, five-year protection, and nicely priced; how can you go wrong?

As always, Western Digital pulls through and shines above the competition. Honestly, our computer shop has switched completely to western digital because we've never had a Western Digital fail. And it's backed by a three year warranty (I assume they can do this just because they know their drives never fail).

Would recommend over any single other brand out there today.

I setup the drive, then installed Windows XP and downloaded all needed updates. It runs smooth!!! I purchased this hard drive to replace the original WD 30gb drive. Hoping to get some additional user life out of the computer because I'm going to give it to someone that's never had a computer.

Being a user of older computers, I need older equipment to upgrade the speed and capacities of my computers to squeeze the very last bit of usefulness out of them. I have purchased a number of "new" hard drives from vendors here on eBay and although they were perfectly functional, they all still contained someone's installed programs & personal data! Even the so-called "erased" units. I wonder how many identities have been stolen off of resold "new" hard drives...

It is a high quality product is safe to handle with high performance over long periods of work reliably recommend using this type of product leonpachon5!
