Western Digital WD5000AAKX

I bought a Western Digital 500GB WD5000AAKX Blue internal hard drive (8.9 cm (3.5 inches), 7200rpm, SATA 6Gb / s, 16MB Cache), Sales by Schwanthaler computer. When the plate arrived, worked at all. I found out that the board was not enabled, etc., and I fixed the problem with any tool from a CD or DVD (probably DISKPART, create volume simple and again DISKPART, create partition primary align = 1024, then FORMAT / fs = ntfs / s: Enable.

That was the end of October 2013. The board ran reasonably, repeatedly has been activated at the start of Windows CHKDSK, almost every defective cluster were discovered - in short, the board has problems. Since it is the first system disk (on a different, Samsung, running Linux, which is somewhat exciting.

Today, as I suspected, it could be something defective again, I ran CHKDSK, which with the comment: the operation ceased "Volume is clean".

Western Digital's DLGDIAG now breaks with status code 07 from (Failed read test element).

I held so far one of the best Western Digital hard drive manufacturers. That's over now.
