    WD Caviar Green 2 TB Desktop Internal Hard Drive (WD20EZRX)

    I love SSD drives. Everything about them makes me smile but yes you are right for the price you pay for a 64GB drive your looking at the price you'd pay for a 2TB mechanical WD green. And when it's all said and done with that 64GB by the time windows is installed and updates and programs are...

    That I'm not sure about I've been running my machines 24/7 for the past 4 months straight without a hiccup. I've read some reviews that say ssd drives have an iffy life expectancy but in 3 years of using them solo or in raid they have yet to fail on me.

    I'm running two corsair 120gb raid in both my machines and its honestly the best feeling watching it boot up in seconds and access files so quick. I love my ssd drives I even put them in my laptops too

    You just have to love it. :).. Raptor's where loud because of the rate of speed at least I thought they where loud but your talking to a guy that'll buy a 20.00 case fan just because I want to keep the noise down to a min. I have two i7 tower's here and I demand quiet with them. Then there is...

    Yeah i had the Velociraptors for years I loved them 10,000 RPM and can be heard two rooms away lol. Buddy of mine works at a computer retail shop and said thank god they are done selling them because he was sick of them being returned all the time. Besides the point, i'm not sure on the...

    You are correct it doesn't just stop as soon as your done doing whatever is you may be doing. I'm not sure on the time frame but eventually if it's not being used it'll park the heads at some point. If it's a data drive it's not a bad idea but myself I'm always accessing files all the time so...

    Doesn't sound like an issue sounds like a regular green drive to me. Here's a question what'st he sound it makes ? is it a clicking or power up power down noise ? Or is it just a spinning noise ?

    multi monitor sli question ! motherboard speeds

    I've done this before funny how computers are now a day's with all these graphic's slots. To my understanding you should be able to add that third card and keep your speed without any issues because you are not running in 3 way SLI and keeping your regular 670s in SLI and a separate third card...

    WD Caviar Green 2 TB Desktop Internal Hard Drive (WD20EZRX)

    Yepp all mechanical hard drives make noise, some noisier than others. It's just the heads doing there thing but when your not doing anything with it there as quiet as a church mouse. Plus another thing as far as noise goes too depends on your case if your using a cheap case or a factory has...

    Yeah they say that because they stop and go stop and go. I've had a few for storage and they are great hard drives. Reliable as can be I have a lot of faith in western digital. It's that intellipower that they use that makes people frown because they do that whole stop and go. There not a WD...
