Advantages: Cheap for spec
Disadvantages: Noisy
I've only had the hard drive a month and have only 5GB loaded but my first opinion is how noisy it is. It almost talks! It whines and grunts like an old man! It's all a bit scary and makes me wonder if I have a duffer. I bought the drive from Micro Direct, Manchester, UK, because my other drive went on the blink. The specification was excellent for the price. Transferring stuff from the old drive was OK and I loading Windows XP with no problems.
