  • Used WD Caviar hard drives are very cheap and seem to last forever.

    These old used 80GB WD Caviar drives are a great value. They seem to be very durable and have a very long life span. I've never seen one fail. Many times I've picked up Gov-surplus PC's with no hard drive. I just get on eBay and pick up one of these old Caviars for $10 USD or less. I pop it in, reinstall Windows and we are off to the races. I've done the same thing with old PC's with crashed Maxtor drives. To be exact, if I bought a used PC with a working Maxtor drive, I would swap it out for a WD Caviar. These things are built like tanks and last forever.

  • Reviews for Western Digital Caviar SATA WD800JD 80GB

    I like the small size. I have bought more than 500 GB worth of these drives to use as archival media for old home movies I recently digitized. I consider hdd technology superior to tape, cd/dvd, etc. as long as they are stored properly, but I still didn't want to put all my eggs in one basket a la 500+ GB drive. It loads much faster than the old IDE primary that was in the PC I serviced. Where as it took about 5 minutes at least for the PC to load up XP and the desktop it now takes a total of about 30 seconds (using SATA I setting). Loads up applications on the drive much faster as well. WD drive. =) The size may be a problem with Vista, my XP Home Ed. uses about 40-GB my XP-Pro uses a 80-GB..and my new Vista OS uses a 80-GB..for Vista a larger drive is possible.

  • Western Digital Caviar SE WD800JD 80 GB

    Although the hard drive is a well made product; I recommend not buying this for anything more than a basic email machine. The had drive yields about 72GB of actual space. Add in a Windows O/S and Anti-Virus with updates and that leaves you in the neighborhood of 50GB. I can use up that or most of it adding Java, Messenger, Flash, Decent photo editing software and a few other programs.

  • Solid performance for under 20 bucks!

    Had a computer with a dying HDD. Intended to repurpose the rig as a media hub where everything would be streamed to it. Since space wasn't an issue, 80 GB was perfect. The price was right and when it came, I installed an OS to it, plugged it in and it works flawlessly. Drive access speed wasn't phenomenal, but it certainly gets a B+ despite being a used hard drive.
