Customer Review

So far, I was really impressed by the HD: whisper quiet and still pleasantly performant, associated with seemingly unlimited space. PC Gamer Heart what you want more? Well, that is easy to answer: at least a lifetime of> = 2 years. Since 1989, now I am working with PCs, but that a hard drive even after only six (!) Weeks gives up her mind, something I had never. Currently I try under guarantee to exchange, and I certainly hope that this is just a "mon production". However, I veer rather that 2 TB drives for technical reasons simply are much more vulnerable than their smaller volume Penants.
Will update this review as soon as I receive new insights. Until then, only once, based on this sobering experience, only one star and the Recommendation takes but rather a precaution only once to the 1 TB versions.

Addendum 11.29.2014: after 5 months now I can state reassured that they do so far is reliable. Although I still have some suspicion in this HDD. But if it is still running so quiet and safe even after 12 months, I could imagine a 5-star rating. Review will be supplemented accordingly. Until further notice, I forgive first time four star and hope that it's worth to continue;)
