## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which 1 TB hard disk you recomend between the Western Digital Blue WD10EZEX or the Seagate Barracuda ST1000?**
A: Seagate's quality dropped drastically when they acquired Maxtor's technology...back in 2006/2007. I remember getting a couple maxtor drives with a seagate model number just before it was announced. That drive had the shortest lifespan of any hard drive I ever owned...including maxtor drives.

I also recall a short time before the acquisition, Maxtor's president made a comment about hard drives being bound to fail, which is true, but the way he carried on about it after that seemed like he was focusing more on trying to justify the failures that their drives were having at the time.

Nevertheless, I stopped buying Maxtor drives and decided to spend the extra money for seagate quality only to end up with a seagate drive with a maxtor technology and all the same problems with it.

WD is reliable and reasonably priced. I have a four of these...2 from 2012 and 2 from 2016. They ran Windows 7 pretty well up until 2020 when I upgraded to their Blue SSDs. Now they're used for storage with no troubles.

**Q: Is this the retail version (boxed) or is it an OEM bulk drive?**
A: Mine came in an anti-static bag, wrapped in bubblewrap, in a plain white box. Per Western Digital is an OEM disk, with no warranty, which was not disclosed prior to purchase. Sold by Hard Drive Geeks, Amazon fulfilled. I plan to return due to the warranty.

**Q: On the picture it shows the hard drive's insides, do I need a special enclosure besides me computer case for this?**
A: If your are installing in a Windows PC, that is a new-ish computer (probably any that came with vista and many that came with XP) it will support Serial ATA hard drives, open abbreviated to SATA drives. You should look up the specs on your computer to insure compatibility. This hard drive is a SATA drive so it will install and replace your other computer. I purchased this drive, and also bought an external case. This would allow this internal hard drive to work as an external drive. It plugs into an external power supply and connects to the computer with a USB cable. The external case I purchased here on amazon is a: Sabrent USB 3.0 To 3.5-Inch Sata Aluminum Hard Drive Enclosure Black Case.I was installing Windows 7 on my PC. I stalled the WD 1 TB drive in the PC, installed the Windows 7 software, then installed my older smaller drive in the external case.

**Q: Can I plug this in as an external hdd enclosure with usb 3.0 capabilites and have it function on an xbox one?**
A: Yes, the only requirement on the Xbox One side is that the connection be USB 3.0 and the drive be a minimum of 500 Gb. Other than that purchase a reliable enclosure kit that also supplies power and uses the SATA connection already on the HDD.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Got a lemon, but it was replaced within a day. Can't complain now.
*by K***N on June 15, 2022*

I ordered this a few days back and it came yesterday. I installed it as soon as I got home from work, created a partition in the same way I've done a million times before, but something either went wrong there, which I don't think happened. I've been installing and partitioning drives since I was like 10. I'm not saying it's impossible I screwed up, I'm saying it's very unlikely.The computer I installed it in also booted slow which it shouldn't because it's a brand new, high end workstation PC booting from an M.2 that I built myself to perform very specific tasks. It normally takes 5-20 seconds to boot from dead cold. With that drive installed it took about a minute, which your average PC user probably wouldn't even notice. But I'm not an average user, and I certainly did.It also gave me issues when trying to render with Blender or open CC4, Substance Painter, or any GPU intensive program. Even Halo CE was laggy and that's hardly a dent on my GPUs at max settings. I can play Halo and Render animations at the same time most nights.I'm not sure what that was about, some sort of bottleneck in my machine somwhere, because when I removed the drive and wiped the partition, everything worked fine again.I'm fairly sure there was a fault with the drive itself. I first noticed when it only showed 8gbs of capacity. I've seen USB sticks do this, but it's almost universally because that portion of the memory is unallocated. This was not unallocated, it was simply not present.I tried every formatting and recovery trick I know to no avail. Even tried a few paid recovery programs with no luck. At first I thought I just screwed up, but with each recovery and formatting methods I tried that failed, the more I was convinced I didn't screw up.Finally around 11 or so at night, after hours of trying I gave up and submitted a request for a replacement which came already today. I just installed said replacement moments ago. No issues what-so-ever. Installed fine and reads exactly as it should.So, yeah. I did apparently receive a dud on the first go, but Amazon was quick to replace it and the new one has no issues thus far.WD has always made good equipment and I stand by their HDDs even still. This was the first problem I've had with WD drives in many years, over a decade. I've had VERY old ones become corrupted, but never had one not work right out of the box.Again, I want to stress that this was last night it all happened. Amazon got a replacement to me in less than 24 hours, so yeah. No complaints from me. Everything is working and I'm happy. Would buy again.
