Actually, just for data backup (i.e low usage), WD green should be OK. If you want something better and can't stretch to "server grade", WD black should be good enough for most applications. 作者: 白少爷 時間: 2010-7-6 09:32
I bought 2 Hitachi 2TB recently (at HKD9xx). There is no problem so far. I think that they are good enough for backup purpose. I used WD green before but those new version WD green harddisk use advance format and need special manipulation under XP so I change to Hitachi.

What is the special manipulation by WD?
I use Win7, but don't want any special manipulation as portability is important. 作者: sduofficer 時間: 2010-7-6 09:39
In Win XP and under some other conditions, you need to run an utiliy before using the latest WD green harddisks. Not so user friendly to me. See the link below:
I had bad experience with IBM (later then sell it to Hitachi). ever since, I am not buying Deskstar. Seagate, a lot of problem reported, so I am staying away too.
Now I am in WD Enterprise grade only........ 作者: putin728 時間: 2010-7-6 10:12
The problem with Seagate is that there were occasional "lemons". I have mixed experience with Seagates, some lasted for a very long time and some lasted only for a couple of years. 作者: teddyboy14 時間: 2010-7-6 10:28

I have bought a 2nd hand Seagate HD taking out from an ext. HD with waranty up to 2012.but it is out of order after a while.
As I check the s/n no. with the dealer and he said if dismount from enclosure, waranty void.
Pls advise? Should I find an enclosure? 作者: jackenwil 時間: 2010-7-6 11:30
